Am I Cooked?

Will be a Sophomore (in August) and come from a non target Californian (horrible school tbh and close to no alumni in IB as a fresh grad). High GPA, great ECs, studying my ass off for IB topics this summer like DCF, M&A, you name it. Want to go towards M&A’s ideally, but any IB firm that takes me I will be happy. I just want to know, if I do have a chance to make it if I network from online coffee chats? I’m just hoping I’m not the only one who is experiencing my Highschool freshman and sophomore fuck up to ruin my chances of a good job.
