Plan of Attack

I have been lurking on these forums for a bit now and you guys seem like smart people. I need some advice on how to accomplish what I would like to do (skip to the bottom for a condensed version*).

I'm a senior at a non-target school (1st tier at least, but no one recruits here). I've maintained a 4.0 while double majoring in math and finance. I'm involved on campus, have some leadership positions, was chosen as outstanding student of the year in the business department, have a part time job (nothing relevant), and have hobbies outside of academics (basically trying to indicate I'm well rounded and not just some egg head). I've been preparing myself to go into a PhD program geared towards landing me a job in academia. However, today, after submitting my last application, the thought hit me like a ton of bricks: what if I don't get into any of the schools I've applied to? I applied to a safety school, but I honestly don't want to be stuck at a shitty school after doing my PhD so I'd rather not go if I'm not going to a top tier school.

If I weren't to go into academia, Equity Research seems interesting to me. From what I've found out about it, a lot of the same things that attract me to academia seem to be present in Equity Research. It seems that an MBA from a top school is the best way to get into such a job. What should my plan of attack be for getting a job in Equity Research?

I know I fucked up by not going to a better school for undergrad when I had the opportunity but I didn't, partially for family reasons and partially because I didn't know any better. But no more excuses, where should I go from here?
