Chance of Internship?

Hi, I'm a rising sophomore at a semi-target in the north east. I have a 3.5 GPA working towards a finance/history major I have a couple of extracurriculars, but nothing that I'd say is noteworthy. Do I have a chance at getting a sophomore internship in ER at a BB for next summer? Am I much better off going for a smaller bank? I've been trying to find a direction for myself lately and it seems as though I have the most interest in ER, but I still have a lot to learn about it.

You have to work on your GPA to target BBs. ER is possible if you have an interest in that field. You have to work on pitching stocks and getting to know financial statements well.
