I probably got super lucky, but I passed without taking a practice test and only watching the Series 7 Guru and Kenneth Finnen the night before and morning of. If anyone has any questions please dm.

Advice for incoming freshman recruiting for IB

Before anyone says it's too early to prepare for investment banking, I have friends at Wharton and LSE who were freshman with BB offers in the summer leading into their sophomore year. I also do have a life as I was originally a D2 recruit for basketball with 5+ offers, but stopped playing due to injury.

My goal is to recruit at an Elite Boutique and Bulge Brackets my junior year and I wanted advice on what to do as I join school in a week. I am an incoming freshman at UT Austin's McCombs school of business. I understand it is not a target, but rather a semi-target.

My Current Finance Experience

1. Grades 9 - 12 : Ran a startup backed by a VC company that did 10k in revenue every month
2. Worked at a small real estate private equity firm in my area
3. This summer I interned at a search fund
4. I currently have two offers (one at a small private equity shop and another at a LMM Investment Bank based out of New York)
5. I have passed my SIE
6. I have gone through the 400 page guide and have locked down all of my technicals.

My question is what do I have to do in terms of club recruiting, networking, and what are other professional experiences I should seek to get. How ahead of the curve am I?
