What are my best options and what do y’all think I should do
I’m from Toronto, graduated high school in ’22, didn’t take advantage of online private schools finished with only a 90 so I only got in Laurier and uoft (not Roman) and ryerson. Chose Laurier at first but I was a weak 18 yr old who was too scared to live alone so I went to the only place that resent an offer, Ryerson.
Ik I’m an idiot but it is what it is just finished my first year of accounting and finance ( I was in business management then transferred programs). I have some good ecs ( president of model un, got featured on the newspaper, worked as a peer tutor) currently Im doing an RBC summer internship it’s nothing crazy just regional banking branch stuff but hey I mean it’s not bad considering co op hasn’t even opened yet for my class. My gpa is mid right now 3.5-3.6 it was always at a 3.8 plus but one semester I had a big dip but my most recent semester it was 3.85. I guess I just feel lost and pissed at my own decisions never acc thought about ending or anything but I’ve felt depressed fs. However ik I can’t just do nothing. Any advice would be appreciated, I’m willing to do anything.
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some actionable steps and advice for your situation:
Leverage Your Current Internship:

By focusing on these areas, you can make the most of your current situation and set yourself up for future success. Remember, it's never too late to turn things around and achieve your goals.

Disclaimer: I have absolutely no fucking idea what the names you're referencing mean, so no concept of good or bad school.
Best advice I can give is to stop feeling sorry for yourself and being a whiney baby. You are where you are, either due to circumstances you found yourself in or decisions you made - that should be the extent of thinking about the past.
Now you need to come up with a goal and figure out actionable steps to achieve that goal. If you can't come up with achieveable steps, do a little soul searching to see if you actually want your goal.
Repeat until you have something executable - then go execute.
Also - learn to write a little more professionally.
Join investment clubs, the ones that are inter-school. I've met crazy dedicated people from TMU within those clubs landing crazy opportunities and I'm sure you're hard working enough to do so 💯
