Would like some advice...

So I am ruling out ibanking as an option full time since I am non-target, 3.3 GPA, and only have had BO and MO gigs at BlackRock + Lehman.

Anyways, I would like to get into risk, perhaps market or counterparty risk. It is a BIT less technical, because I do not have a superior strong quant/programming background. Anyways...my hopes would be to do 2 years in risk, perhaps move to portfolio analytics at a BB for 3 years, and the move to do research and stuff at a PE firm. Is this a possible path? (I will seek to get a MSF or MBA along the way)

Furthermore, would someone be kind enough to lay down the structures to a PE firm and where else on can possibly do there? I know I won't be able to be in the front and do the gangster deals, but I'd like a "less" stressful job, with decent hours, and nice pay.

Do I have a chance? :) Thanks in advance
