Queen's Commerce for PE?

I plan on going to Queen's this fall for their Bachelor of Commerce program with the hope of getting into IB and ultimately PE. Unfortunately, I didn't apply to Ivey because I didn't like their program structure (2 years of something unrelated before Ivey begins). I also got into BBA/Math at the university of waterloo but chose not to go there because I don't enjoy math enough to pursue a degree in it. What should I be doing going forward to give me a chance in this competitive field? I do not want to transfer to Ivey after 2nd year.
