Keeping it short. I'm a sophomore, pretty sure I want to go into commodity trading (energy). I am interviewing for investment banking right now, and know they are great for career mobility, but frankly, do not want that lifestyle. That being said, if I receive an offer should I take it/is it ok to turn down an acceptance later? My main problem is IB Houston starts now but trading would probably be next year and since I want to go commodities a BB rotational program isn't what I'm looking for.

So why don't you want to do a BB rotational S&T program? Just because you don't want to risk not getting commods?
Yea I feel like working at a place like Trafigura or a Supermajor is where I want to go bc I am more interested in physical trading.
Gotcha - so you're asking does it make sense to go thorugh IB recruiting as a back up to getting a phyiscal commod trading seat? Yeah you can do that - if you renig on a BB offer you're never gonna work at that BB again (you'll burn some bridges) but won't hurt you too much if you really aren't interested in that space so go for it.
thanks for the response. I took the IB offer and if I don't like it, I will try for a graduate trading program.
