See yourself in 5 years advice

So I am currently working on a lower-sized real estate PE fund in my hometown and will be applying for MBA in a couple of months. It's been really cool witnessing such a growth in something that could reap huge rewards and my boss is a really smart guy, but I want to try something totally new. I hope to grad at 27 with my degree and make my way to a FO role in a different location (NYC, SF, Windy city, etc.) The only problem is that my undergrad GPA was bang average, possibly not good even, making me think an excellent or even a great grad school is out of the question cause my test scores aren't excellent either. I was thinking of doing acct at whatever school I get into and then suck up a BO role for two years while networking my ass off and then make my way to FO at an associate level. Maybe even CFA? Does this seem realistic? OR would it make more sense to just go for the FO role from the get go?
