Advice needed for this

Incoming junior at target school. Been exposed to IB/PE/HF life since the day I stepped into the university.

Have a few IB interviews lined up for this week, I’m rethinking if I really want to do IB. Not technically strong, but know the fundamentals. I don’t know if made up for this life. I don’t know if I see myself working in IB, slogging away those hours.

Advice?
