Get off LinkedIn and have a life.
Too young for all this.
Go work at McDicks
I'll give you more specific advice than what was given above.
You will not get a meaningful internship in finance (i.e. one that is not shadowing or bean counting) at your age, unless you have close familial relations to someone working in finance.
It will be much more beneficial to your future for you to explore entrepreneurship than do anything finance related. You'll have plenty of time to do modelling, learn more about the industry, etc. later. However, you won't always have plenty of of time to start a business. And if you do start a business that has some meaningful success, it could help a lot when it comes to landing a job in IB.
It is good that you already looking into making connections on LinkedIn; they can be invaluable in the future. However, you risk looking like a hardass by trying to connect with people in IB so early on. I suggest that you leave the IB networking until your freshman year of college and beyond.
Last comment on the "delete it" train: delete it until your junior year or until you've already had a meaningful internship.
Threads like these are kind of depressing if you think about it. The rat race starts earlier and earlier.
Was meeting up with a friend from home and his little brother (middle school aged) tagged along with us for a bit. Straight told me he wanted to become an investment banker and go to Harvard or Wharton since they're the best schools to do so. Middle. fucking. school. I know it's an anomaly but holy shit so many young lives have the potential to be ruined by this crap.
