What are your best internship interview tips?

I have managed to secure three interviews so far for this upcoming semester. I had one earlier this week and I felt it went fairly well, but in the follow-ups they told me that they were going to wait to make a decision after they hire a new analyst in the office, and that I should follow up in a month. Although this isn't a no, it does feel like i'm getting hit with the curve.

I have another interview for a small development company next week, and then a REPE firm the week after, and I was wondering what your best advice for really acing an interview would be.
