If a major related to IB has a better GPA, you could try putting that on your resume. Either way, you will have to be circumspect about what kind of firms would offer you a realistic chance.
what firms i should consider that i might still have a decent shot in?
Oh it’s just a silly GPA - that wouldn’t be very inclusive of them to hold it against you.
do you have any advice as to how to overcome it?
What year are you? Try to bring it up to at least 3.5
soph. i was at a 3.5 but this semester it got down and i know its not ideal but i actually have legitimate reason
Apply to the diversity programs. I know those once you get in you just have to perform. I have friends who had low GPAs and broke thru via diversity at top BBs.
They’re all closed
so i have no hope?
No, only MS and GS are closed. Apply to UBS Tomorrow’s Talent, DB Achieve, JP Morgan Advancing Pathways fellowship, etc. before the end of the month.
You are diversity so it doesn't really matter. If someone brings up, just scream racist. After all, you earned your spot!
You are probably required to do I would. If you have time try to bring it up to a 3.5
Leave it off your resume but make sure you include your race.
