Since you're so young (congrats on being ahead of the game), I would consider getting a Masters of Finance immediately after graduation. If you're smart enough to be graduating at 19 you have a good shot at a top program and the top MSFs place extremely well into IB-- basically if you want an IB analyst job you will get it if you go to Vandy, USC, MIT, UT Austin, probably a couple other top programs I'm forgetting. Of course this is only advisable if you can afford to take on debt or pay tuition, but it sounds like you are a good fit for this kind of program and it should get you where you want to go.

I'm not an expert on this-- I entered the industry after undergrad, but I have some friends who are getting MSFs. A quick google search will tell you BC is not quite top tier, more like top 20 but people do get pretty decent jobs-- just a lot of them are more FLDPs and the like than front office finance. I know for a fact the ones I mentioned are going to have some of the best placement rates for investment banking. Try looking up "top MSFs for IB" or something like that and also going on the program websites to see info about their career outcomes.
Not sure. But sounds like asking the question is a good start. Whatever you can learn about IB is prob good. Like the big investment banking books like Rosenbaum or the like. And then maybe network to see if someone can hire you to learn/work for them to learn the business. Best of luck to you
