Credit and Operational Risk Summer Analyst Interviews

Hi, I just got selected for two first round interviews: credit risk and operational risk summer analyst positions. However, I really want to break into banking, but I'm not really getting interviews for IB right now because of my GPA so I am considering MO. I don't really know much about it and wanted to know what I should expect in the interview. Should I know probability and risk metrics? Anything that I need to know would help. Thanks!
