Will this get me an analyst type position at a BB?

If this is not enough, which would add more value to my resume? A finance internship at a boutique investment bank or a finance internship at a small hedge fund? I can potentially intern during the school year.

It'll probably get you in the door, but you have to get yourself the position

And by that you mean like answer well on the technical questions and the behavior questions correct?

I mean you will be competitive to get first rounds, but still no guarantee. If you don't have access to OCR then this is probably not enough.

The answer to this question is going to rely pretty heavily on if you go to a target school. Do banks come to your school to recruit?

Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker.

You have a solid resume bro, I'm confident you can land a SA position with a BB firm. Just be ready to kill your interviews and prep well. Take advantage of your campus's OCR events

generally speaking, i haven't seen any state school grads working at the BB i feel like it will be an uphill battle

I won't be surprised if it's an uphill battle. I am not going to a target school but there is OCR. However, I am at a slight disadvantage since I have to compete with rising seniors who may have potentially gotten SA positions at MM or BB before.

Edit: Also would it hurt to change my GPAs to one decimal place and change the 3.75 to a 3.8?

I agree with uphill battle - lots of people already have IB experience by sophomore summer, go to better schools etc. However you check the main boxes, so to speak, and could be competitive if you have a network pushing for you and helping you out by referring you etc (this will be the big kicker - if you have a solid network you could be ok). I think you'll struggle with a solid network.

See my WSO Blog

Also, since I have 4 or 5 things that fall under Finance Experience, should I just reduce my leadership experience down to a few lines in total (like position and name of the club). And try to elaborate more on what I did in finance?

Last time I checked there wasn't 10 BB banks

I apologize. I meant in the top 10. but realistically, any BB would be great.

you'll probably get an interview.
