AM I INCREDIBLY COOKED OR WHAT

I'm a Junior at a semi-target, an economics major, and a transfer student. I tried to apply to an investment banking club but got denied, and I could not even answer basic IB questions during the interview. I have one finance experience where I thankfully shadowed a principal at a local real estate PE firm, but I did not follow up and did not learn as much as I should have. HOW CAN I RECOVER AND GET SOME OFFER PLS HELP
