Will take any internship

unior at semi-target, strong gpa 3.7+, strong leadership and boutique ib experience, networked, got superdays at 2 of (GS/JP/MS) but didn't get them, waitlisted at bb and an mm and don't think I'm getting off. My question is seriously what do I do now. I think recruiting is pretty much completely over and I have no summer position. I'm trying to position myself best for FT recruiting which I know is even more impossible than this year. Trying to position myself for anything finance related in the Fall since I've pretty much given up on banking. Do I just hang my head and apply to law school? What finance related things would still hire at this point?

unior? you can get an internship next year but also look for alternatives. an internship is better than no internship. since you got 2 superdays from top BBs your CV is probably good enough for other roles. apply to other places.
