College Student with Investment Banking Dreams

Hello everyone!

I joined this site because my ultimate goal after completing college is to work on Wall Street in finance. I'm a sophomore at community college and intend on applying to transfer to a university this fall (2016). I know I'll have o hit the ground running once I do transfer if I hope to get a good internship for the summer of my Junior year. If anyone has any advice on what I should be doing during this coming year before I transfer, it would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes
