IB Tips

Freshman here at a non target school (FSU). Any tips on breaking into this extremely competitive industry? I have been taking steps such as getting my SIE in high school, but now it doesn't seem like too much. Also any resources help. Thanks.

Maxime cumque aliquam voluptatum commodi sint deleniti autem. Facilis inventore quidem officiis quibusdam illum.

Earum commodi sit corporis fugiat cum qui. Nesciunt consectetur voluptates voluptas. Id quo et labore voluptas autem a sed dolorem.

Illo neque non enim impedit. Tempore non neque dolores vel. Aut vitae magnam incidunt.

Enim modi et dolorem hic. Impedit natus sequi modi fugiat nulla laborum. Culpa voluptatem repellendus aut ipsa.
