About to graduate with nothing lined up - need advice

Hi monkeys,

I am a finalist at a UK target with nine months' worth of REPE internship experience at very good shops. Unfortunately, I failed to convert my summer internship and did a lot of interviews, and got a lot of final rounds but struck out on everything for very marginal reasons (e.g. other candidates spoke more languages).

I am targeting either IB in Dubai or MF PE/PC/REPE in London. What should my next steps be, and how can I best use the free time I might have after graduation?

Would appreciate any advice, thanks!
