Sleeper Soph SA options

I'm currently in the pipeline for a couple of BB Soph SA programs and had wondered what you guys think would be a good choice as my 2nd or 3rd option at firms besides the usual IBD, ER, DCM/ECM. I would like to get into IBD or ER for junior year so I want to know what would be a good backup plan in case I don't get a FO internship at a BB. I was thinking finance. risk, or ibd operations may not be so bad?
