Graduating HS, going for Bloomberg terminal certification.

Hello people

Am currently about to graduate, and finish my process in the IB certification program. In 5 months I will be entering a top college in my country but I want to get ahead of everyone and get my Bloomberg certification as soon as I can, is it really worth it getting this Bloomberg thing early?

I am looking forward to work in Investment Banking or be a pro trader, but in my country trading Is not relevant at all so the focus would be to get a job at NY if I go for a trading career.
