Hi everyone!! - Current MSF student in a target

Hey monkeys,

Current MSF student in a target in EU (non-target elsewhere) but dropping out due to family reasons and heading back to Canada.

Worked in PWM then a Boutique IBD internship in Toronto this past year.

GPA is sub 3.5.

Will be back in Canada end of the month, just wondering if you guys have any advice for me.

Student loans stacked up and pretty killer right now so wondering if I should
1) just get a job and network to lateral in the industry or
2) dedicate myself to find a boutique/MM FO role for a few months (if that fails go back to option 1 but with more debt)

Thanks guys
