Student Veteran, One Year in the Industry

I'm a Marine veteran currently attending my last year at a non-target school. So far I have one year at a custodial bank in their pricing department but am looking to move into more front office activity, be it trading, WM, hedge funds or other. Just discovered this resource and I love the concept, as I could use all the help I can get to try and break in to the industry.

I'm open to, and would appreciate any advice. Considering taking the GMAT or a series 63 or 7. Looking to gather up a list of target companies to apply to this Fall and can use all the help I can get.
