Highschooler (Advice Needed)

Good Morning Everyone I hope your all doing good. To provide some background I’m a 17 year old senior in high school in a small suburb outside of Cleveland planning to attend Miami, OH with a major in Finance and Minor in CS. Miami isn’t a target school but they have an IB club that consistently places to some of the best firms in my area like KBCM, BGL, etc. Ive talked to a few kids that have excelled past their peers and placed into BB’s and EB’s in NYC and Chicago. I bought the WSO modeling package and have completed the 3 Statement Module as of now. Ive been networking and reaching out to people in my area with around 1300 connections on LinkedIn, and I’ve had a few calls. My interests in finance include: Tech(AI), RE, Aerospace/Defense. My personal interests include: my girlfriend, video games, snowboarding, basketball, MMA, reading, and coding. Do you have any advice for someone trying to break into IB(internships/shadowing, networking), or any general life advice? Thank you for reading, and have an amazing week!
