Am I Doomed
Hi,
After the online learning fiasco that was my freshman year, I've taken a gap year off to reprioritize things + take a breather. Over this period of time, I've become acquainted with the world of finance and I've become interested in pursuing a career in investment banking. In doing so, I've started to build financial models/understand the linkage between financial statements.
I do; however, realize that the prestige/competition at these investment banks has resulted in the recruiting process (often) starting for many second year of college. While this may come off as an excuse to many of you, I did very poorly during my first year of college due to online learning/classes. A myriad of different factors stemming from the pandemic resulted in an environment that was incompatible with online classes. Furthermore, I wasn't involved with any of the finance related clubs.
While I do currently attend a target school in the west coast on a scholarship+NMSC, I realize this isn't enough to compensate for my poor grades/lack of finance-related activity. Is it too late for me to turn things around for the IB recruitment process?
TLDR:
Spent my freshman year messing around and now have piss-poor grades with no finance-related activities. Too late to turn things around for IB recruitment process?
