Future UNI student needing advice

Hello, I am an incoming afm student at university of Waterloo and I just wanted some advice on how to maximize my opportunities, what habits to have and how you’ve networked to help break into investment banking. I may have a naive approach and I’m not sure if I’m using this website properly but I thought this is the best place for any advice that would be greatly appreciated.
