Landed an IB offer with a 3.1 at the time. With a 3.4 you still have a shot at MM and if you have decent enough connections then at BBs. Target your recruiting efforts on banks that have alums and are realistic. When I was looking for an offer I didn’t chase after BB or EB because I knew I wasn’t gonna get traction there. Instead focused on MM and boutiques.
