IBanker Stories/Advice

What advice would you give to a student that is starting as a freshman this fall?

I'm from Canada and I will be at a target, what can I do to get a head start from my peers? Any resources I can use?

Also for those of you i-bankers, what are your stories? How did you become an i-banker, share a profile of yourself.

Cheers!

I searched before I asked the question. Just asking for some help, if you can't provide it then don't post at all...

You're in high school. Shut the fuck up and learn how to do some research before posting on a forum and then bitching when people rightfully tell you to learn how to use the search function.

blackstone just take time to browse the forums and other related websites like mergers&inquisitions etc... One thing you'll learn is that Investment Bankers don't waste time and you shouldn't either expecting a response when there are resources that live off those questions.
