Do you have any relevant internships?
Almost impossible to get into IB when you are starting as a senior. Most people are prepping as freshmen and recruiting starts sophomore year.
Path of least resistance is to get some sort of job in finance, even corporate finance at a random company (ideally F500, but beggars can't be choosers), and then apply to M7 MBA after 2-3 years. That'll get you right to IB ASO
I have an internship lined up for me as a data analyst. I take a lot of finance classes in college as well including corporate finance, econometric and mathematical financial. I just dropping one of my major.
