Freshman, 3.4 GPA Engineering, Ivy, 1 IB Internship, 1 Search fund internship. I had no idea what IB was coming into college and I messed up by taking the hard engineering courses at the beginning, what are the chances I break in to Investment Banking? I just don't want to waste time if the odds are low.

is it crazy to believe that ib internship (non searchfund) = breaking into investment banking? aren't you already there or even like inside the doorway at this point.
It's at a boutique IB and it's unpaid. I'm heading into sophomore year going through the recruiting process for the bigger banks (hopefully). Haven't made it yet haha
You'll make it.
If you’re gonna let someone on an anonymous forum tell you if you are “going to make it” based on 1 paragraph of text and let that seriously decide what level of effort you are going to put in to recruiting, then you were never going to make it on the first place. Put WSO down and lock tf in.
Needed this 🫡🫡🫡
so u already have ib internship?
Lmao technically but it's unpaid. I need one for junior year to hopefully convert to full time.
You have almost the same profile as someone who has been actively trying to make IB
Congrats on retard, accidentally GMI
