7th grader looking to break into IB

Hi WSO, currently in ~7th grade at a target middle school which is a feeder to a prestigious High School which should land me in HYP, to anyone at a EB/BB what do you wish you knew about IB in middle school? I've shadowed for a LMM PE firm but looking to gain further experience, learn more about transactions and work on modeling after boy scouts. Thanks!
