No, you are banished to the gulag of acc*unting with that gpa

 

Lead recruiting for my target school at a BB: 3.5 is the cutoff for HR reasons, anything above 3.7 is considered great. After that you are solely evaluated on rest of resume + networking. 3.5 is fine as well if you are good otherwise. 

The average IB analyst prob has a GPA between 3.5 - 4.0 from most target schools (prob something in the range of ~3.7 given people slack of senior year) with the caveat being business majors are probably expected to have highest GPA (i.e. below 3.7 is not really acceptable). For example, I'd think a 3.5 or 3.6 STEM or SEAS GPA is better than a Wharton student with a 3.7 or 3.8.
