Advice on things to do during the lockdown

I’ve just finished my business school semester (graduating in December) and there are still nearly 2 months of downtime until my BB summer internship (S&T,structuring, DCM). Given the lockdown, there isn’t much fun stuff I can do so I thought I would use this time to focus on learning something new/improving my existing skills.

What would you advice I should focus on? Python, VBA, reading good relevant books(please list) or learning something else? Reached out to some analysts at the bank and they said there isn’t anything specific I should prepare for, just be eager to learn from day 1.

Would want to use this time productively. Thanks in advance.
