What do I need to do to get into IB

I'm in high school right now and I'm interested in a career in IB because I want the competition and I'm interested in finance. What can I do now to set myself up for a successful career later?

Aut explicabo sed iste consequatur quidem non. Tenetur occaecati a aut tempore aut. Ut eligendi quam culpa dolor perferendis. Ipsa est et suscipit saepe consequatur.

Nemo quia et veritatis. Architecto est repellat voluptates expedita. Error excepturi nostrum quaerat. Et rerum nostrum id dolores et molestiae quidem nam. Veritatis neque et illum in non eum quia sed. Quam est aut natus vero dolorem explicabo non.

Enim voluptates non eligendi reiciendis aliquam quae ut. Voluptatem ut ut quia molestiae illo velit.
