Strategic Finance Intern to IB FT

Hi everyone!

Looking for some guidance in terms of my path and how viable it would be to move to IB after this internship for FT. Below is my experience and some details

Sophomore Internship: M&A Intern at Tech Company

Junior Internship: Strategic Finance Intern (This program is known to be competitive and many exit out of the internship to FT roles in IB or MBB)

Semi-Target, 3.45 cumulative, 3.75 major, leadership positions on campus (think scholarship + TA position, etc)

Would be happy to take any feedback or provide more detail if needed.
