Anyone else starting to think it would make sense to make a new forum category for just the high schoolers asking questions? Have seen a ton of where should I go to college, high school internships, how to prepare in high school type of threads...

I don't want to encourage high school overachievers any more than we already are. Creating a culture where you need to "prepare" for your 5+ year out career is just ludicrous, no matter how competitive the industry is. When I've participated in entry level recruiting, I look for kids who are well-rounded, happy, and interesting above all else -- the technicals, etc. aren't rocket science and don't require such a dramatic wind-up. If you're currently 18... please go to a party, get a handjob in the backseat of a car, play a sport, and explore all the options and variety available in your professional future before zeroing in on one career rabbit hole.
High schoolers should just learn to get laid and stop wasting everyone's time worrying about financial modeling in 11th grade lmao
Why just high schoolers? I think we should all sit back, relax, spark up the blunt, roll my weed, spark up the next blunt, etc
This. These kids are also rushing to get a head-start on the process that they might burn themselves out
