> Another thing I want to know is which programming languages/tools I should read up on. In my experience I've pretty much only used Java, Git and some basic HTML/CSS and Javascript. I know this is largely dependent on which team I end up on, but I might as well read up on something in the few weeks between graduation and my start date (early July).
AFAIK, we only use Java for the Android versions of our mobile products (MyChart for mobile; and Haiku). Most of our applications use HTML/CSS/JS, though, with use of these technologies increasing as we move away from VB6.
We do not use Git; instead, we use SVN. Maybe spend an hour learning how SVN differs from Git, if you'd like. But a lot of our SVN workflows have an extra layer of automation and hand-holding on top, so realistically, a deep knowledge of SVN isn't particularly useful or necessary for most developers.
I assume you've heard we use VB6 and M. Our internal training materials for these languages is superior to anything you'll find outside Epic. Don't bother hunting through an antique books store for tomes on either of them.
If you're bored and want to learn some job-relevant stuff, consider the following:
> I guess my main concern here is that I just want to know if I should expect to be putting in 60 hour weeks.
I have never worked a 60-hour week at Epic (unless you count time spent sitting in airports / on airplanes as part of the workweek, in which case I've worked one 60-hour week). My typical week is 35-45 hours (which, granted, is on the low end; 40-50 is more typical).
A publishing business. I got stars in my eyes from Naked Truth.

Meredith Wild represents the top 0.0001% of self-publishing, but she slayed in 2015. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/31/business/media/meredith-wild-a-self-publisher-making-an-imprint.html?_r=1
Bella Andre makes a lot of money doing what she does: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/independent-romance-writers-get-the-last-laugh-—-all-the-way-to-the-bank-213437913.html
So even if you're a grub, like I am, you can match your Epic salary in the publishing business if you want to.
