If you're only trying for EB and BB, it might be hard, but I'm calling bullshit if you're saying now, in July, that you won't land SOMETHING. Boutiques hire for the summer well into the spring. Hit the paint HARD, network like hell, study and prep, and you will get something.
The worse you are on paper, the more you have to hustle, but tons of people have done it. You just have to push. Crank out cold emails to one firm a day until May, and you'll have sent out close to 300. Food for thought.
Attitude is everything, dude. Keep hustling.
Oh, and also, having any sort of finance internship experience is solid. It's reallllllly hard to land a front office internship outside of PWM in your first two years of school, so while there will be a decent number of kids with the experience, you're not at a huge disadvantage on that front. You have some finance and biz dev experience, so practice your story and craft it to fit whatever role you're interviewing for. Any experience can be relevant as long as you pick out the elements that pertain the most and showcase them.
