Things to do as a highschooler

go have fun stop worrying about it for now -- enjoy your last semester at high school man

Your girlfriend is a sophomore in college and you're a senior in high school?

A lot to unpack there bud. Go enjoy high school, shit doesn't ramp up until sophomore year of college for recruiting 

This is almost too funny to be fake

pls just enjoy your time with your gf and your high school friends

It’s unfortunately too late for you bud. Should have started in elementary school, that’s what I did and it got me to a feeder middle school. By the time I was 12 I could have carried out a whole sell side process by myself. Then went to a prestigious preparatory school in Connecticut then a HYP, by the time I graduated university I had 6 internships, 3 of which were in HS.

Congrats on the sex 

Don't worry about IB. Enjoy high school, start playing some sports, meet new people, join clubs, whatever. Also in college don't sell your soul and make IB recruitment your life and personality, it sucks once you break in realizing the time lost i.e. developing maturity outside of career, developing relationships, having fun as a college student. So really just enjoy your time now, maybe get into a semi-target or target? That's prolly it. Even freshman year just chill and keep your grades up. Spending 3 years recruiting, full-time recruiting and after landing a dream job at a dream place made me realize how much time I wasted elsewhere. I guess some people will say sacrifices have to be made to achieve your dreams, but be smart with how much you sacrifice. Bit of a rant

If you can't stop thinking about this and the thought of not getting ahead gives you anxiety, you could study the 400 question guide by googling/YouTubing all the concepts you don't understand (which will essentially be everything lol). I didn't really learn anything in class, I prefer to teach myself that's how I went about it. You'll use investopedia a shit ton. Again, YouTube can teach you anything you need to know for finance/accounting. If something still isn't making sense you can post it on here and somebody will likely provide a good explanation.

But honestly if you're that stressed out you should just smoke some weed.

get laid.

Christ bro take it easy. Can't be worrying right now about things that are happening so far in the future. If you already know you want to do IB you're chillin. Continue to read and learn about business but it's not worth the anxiety for something you cannot even do right now. When you get to school, get good grades, join clubs/take leadership positions, and network. If you know all this rn, as long as you stay the course you'll find a way. 

Haha what’s your last name, Kim?

I would not recommend a targeted approach this early out. The macro environment isn’t good right now and there’s a lot of uncertainty regarding the next few years. It would suck to have spent all your free time developing a profile, only for it to go to waste.

Honestly if you really are bored you can do high level things such as follow the markets, and maybe go through a few online accounting or financial modeling courses. That stuff will help you no matter what role in finance you interview for or even if you end up in consulting. Beyond that it’s simply too early to do more detailed studying or preparation.

Get the hell off this platform dude.

No seriously, go enjoy HS while you can. You have the latter 3 years of college to worry about this stuff. Take it from someone that somewhat wishes they pumped the brakes in the first half of college a little bit more and enjoyed things.

yo where tf is pizz

You’re doing great to start off. Are you diversity? If so, there’s some things you can do because diversity recruiting for sophomore summer roles starts your second semester of freshman year, some apps even open like November. Lmk
