Am I Cooked?

Hey guys! My name is Brian and I’m from a rising sophomore transferring into OSU Fisher from a community college in New York. I’m making this post as I’m wondering if it’s too late to salvage my resume in time for recruiting in the spring semester of next year. I’m looking to get into corporate banking or IB. I’m confident that I can achieve and maintain a 3.9+ GPA but what I’m concerned about is my lack of relevant experiences. I’m from the hood so I don’t have high finance connections but it did allow me to get a near full ride to OSU which means I can dedicate all my time to technical prep + networking if that’ll help. If anyone in here can offer me some advice, I’d appreciate it a lot. Thank you for your time.
