I am currently a sophomore at a non-target (3.6 GPA), I pretty much have a corp fin internship with Fidelity lined up for this summer. Assuming I can get my GPA up above a 3.7 by the end of the year along with heavy net working and strong EC, will I still have a decent shot at BB/ EB IBD for junior summer with the corp fin internship or am I fucked without IB this summer?
