To add to Tonto's post, given the 12X24 large format tile you intend to use, as part of your slab prep you'll also want to use a long straight edge to check for floor flatness. I believe the requirement is that the floor can deviate from the intended plan by no more than 1/16" in 2 feet and by no more than 1/8" in 10 feet.
In other words, if the slab has high spots you'll need to remove them. If it has low spots you'll need to fill them.
