A little bit of Bananas about me

I'll be starting my senior year at Baruch's, Zicklin School of Business. My resume has an internship with a brokerage firm (Think Elementary Wolf of Wall Street (I guess baby wolf of wall street)), and management experience with my friends small business (moving company) that just underwent a merger with a larger NYC Newspaper and Beverage Distribution company (kind of cool, but not prestigious enough to matter). I'm an aspiring Investment Banker, and my GPA is quite low (Think low 3.0 cumulative). I know my GPA isn't an accurate reflection of my financial aptitude, but it seems that it's hard to get into IB with out a higher GPA. I realized this a few months ago, and started networking...a lot of networking. My contacts haven't really helped me yet, but I'm hoping that they do soon.

Does anyone have any feedback for me, in terms of steps towards my goal? I'd really appreciate it and any other advice.
