Help need please! Breaking into IB with stem major late.

am currently a junior at a top 10 university who has decided that IV is what they want to do. I am majoring in Neuroscience and was previously premed, and so all of my extracurriculars including my summer activities tailored around this and Nuero Research. I'd really like to work in IB and so I'm wondering what is the best way to go about this. Should I just shoot my shot and apply this fall for full time, or should I go and get a masters in economics after school and go from there. Any advice is appreciated!!
