I have plenty of questions concerning IB

1) a) What are the target schools for undergrad in Ontario, Canada?

b) What are the target schools for Graduate B-schools (MBA) in Ontario, Canada?

c) How is Laurier's UbBBA[/B][/U] in terms of recruiting and opportunities?

2) Is it better to try and get a full time job as an analyst after undergrad and not get an MBA at all? Or is it better to get an MBA and then try to get a full time job as an associate?

3) What year during University do you try and get a summer analyst job? If it's before senior year, do you try and get a summer analyst job two summers in a row, or is it a one summer thing?

4) Is there anything else I need to do besides getting good grades, getting good ECs, and getting a summer analyst job; to maximize my chances of getting a IB job?

I know it's a lot of question and I apologize, but any answers will help me. Thanks

Never too early to start.
