Internship Question Please help me prep for Internship interview!!! Finally got called after applying to approx 1200 jobs

Hi, I got a first level interview call for SWE internship position. Upon asking what to expect in the interview, I got these points from the HR:
• Be sure to go over past/current projects before the interview because we will be asking in depth about those
• Review basic data structures - this is a big one!
• Review and be prepared for basic coding and/or database problems
• Review data science and machine learning terminology
• Review database terminology
• Will most likely be asked about experience with coding languages (Python, React, Java, etc.), and any experience they have with large language models.

Since this is my first time getting a call, please please please tell me what resources I can go through within 5 days to be prepared for this interview. Would really mean a world to me!!!

Sounds like a phone screening, if you Leetcode , brush up on db (sql /non sql) and understand machine learning terminology (supervised vs unsupervised algos) . You should get to the next round. Remember it’s an internship, they don’t wanna see if you can build the next gbt but they do want to see if your competent enough for the position
