At what point did you give up?

I can relate. I feel like I have the most fucked story out of anyone I know.

Undergrad target w/ 3.4 GPA -> relevant internship -> 1 year Masters target w/ A/A+ GPA, done all three levels of CFA. 24 years old, passed L3 last year at fucking 23.

Can't even get interviews.

I honestly regret even studying finance. Certainly regret doing the CFA exams because it has got me NO WHERE. At my masters I studied alongside people now at the best finance institutions in the WORLD. KKR, Blackstone, GS, MS, etc. I felt comfortably smarter and I can't even get a fucking interview.

At this point all I feel like I can do is write the GMAT and get a fucking 780. This whole process is fucking garbage.
