Bocconi is a target, but not its law degree. So forget about BBs for a while and aim to get some experience first in a small boutiques in Italy where your uni brand carries the most value. After you get that experience, you can start networking and applying around Milan for some bigger banks. After 2-3 years in some FO role in a bank, then you can start looking to lateral into a BB.

lol EBs are as hard as BBs

please do your research and ask yourself why you want to do IBs. It looks like you know nothing about it and just want to do it for prestige
