What to do after getting IB 2024 summer analyst offer?

I just received my offer for 2024 and am incredibly pumped. I'm not going to lie; after signing my offer, I felt a bit empty, but now I am wondering what steps I should take to go into the internship as prepared as possible. What should I do other than making a WSO account (I made this half an hour ago) and tailoring my classes toward IB-related stuff? What do current people in the industry recommend for incoming SA to know?

Trying my best to get a return offer, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!
