As a sophomore in high school pursuing a career in investment banking, I figure I am already ahead of the curve in terms of having a plan. However, I'm aware that once I go to college, the competition for an investment banking job will pick up significantly. When that happens, I want to have a head start over my competition. What can I do now that will put me in that position?

never step in front of a man mid-set.
focus on getting into a target school
Get excellent grades, crush the SAT, do something interesting in your spare time, and get into a target school.
Also, be a normal kid. Go get oral by your gender of choice, drink a couple beers with your friends, and enjoy life a little - especially summers. No need to make it a grind before the grind is imposed on you.
Exactly this. Do good in school but don't forget to live your life. It's easy advice to brush off (god knows most everyone does, myself included), but don't grow up before you have to. Before you know it, you'll have the stressors of life to contend with. Enjoy your youth.
Dont peak in high school
Not in IB but been accepted to med school. Similar pressures. In general do well in school, do a sport, try to be good in one thing ( art, tech, activism whatever you think is cool) and act on it. You'll be ahead of most people when time to apply to colleges
