I have no idea if this is a troll or not, but IB is still a good line of business to get into. Considering that you're in high school, apply to schools with good business programs and HYPSM (if possible). From my experience, breaking in as a non-target/semi-target is very doable, and you should enjoy life and not worry about getting a job at 16/17/18.
