Eng major, just did a summer in Consulting, want to switch to IB

I am an engineering major at an ivy w/ pretty good IB placement. As a rising junior, I decided I wanted to make the switch to IB. However, I don't have any experience in finance apart from what I learned on my own. This past summer, I worked in T2 consulting, but I think I like IB better. How can I best increase my chances to land something? I understand it's rlly late in the process, but I wanted to give it a shot regardless. Also, I only have a 3.5, am I fucked? I'm p lost tbh, any guidance would be appreciated.

Hi Intern in Consulting, yes, I'm a bot, but I'm also good looking. Hopefully, these threads help you:

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
