Wait or Play the Game?

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.
