Do I really have a chance?!

Hey everyone- So I'm really interested in getting into i-banking. I'm a triple major in finance, economics and math from a target with a 4.0 GPA. I've done a lot of modeling all over the world so I certainly have a worldly view and I know I'm smart and hot enough to do the job.

I'm currently finishing up planning our annual service trip to South Africa to teach orphaned children basic math and english. When I get back I want to start interviewing.

My uncle is a partner at Goldman Sachs and Daddy says if I work hard enough I'll have a chance at an internship this summer.

I mean this business is so hard to break into, do you think I really have a a chance?
