I have been having a rough trajectory in uni. Currently in a target uni (UQ which is one of Great Eight in Australia) .I did three years of engineering with a fairly low to average gpa and then switched commerce for the last semester. Recently, I was caught for academic misconduct which caused my GPAs of one commerce course and seven engineering courses to a grade of 0 and is marked as misconduct grade in my transcript. Hypothetically, having just done one semester of commerce, say I end up getting near perfect GPAs from now -having 2.5 years to go, multiple case comps, hopefully great networking and internships(hope I get in). How well am I looking to get into Big 4 in Australia and eventually maybe to investment banking or elite finance after some experience. It would be great if I can get the reality or advice from someone who knows the path on how possible this might be. Just wanna know if i should continue this path or put myself back into engineering if thats better to get inthis case. Appreciate it!

How well am I looking for investment banking companies (in Australia) or at least in the pathway - for e.g: starting as a M&A in Delloite or good boutique firms or even getting a decent finance job? Could I plan my way through it? It would be great if I can get the reality or advice from someone who knows the path on how possible this might be. Appreciate it!
