Big 4 trainee contract

Hi. I am currently an audit associate at a Big 4 company. I have worked for 5 months and my first review is this week. I have gained some knowledge on the job, But would like to leave earlier than my 3 year contract. I would like to leave at 1.5 years which allows me to get at least 4 Audits under my belt.

What can I do?
