Asking For Time off From Prop Trading Firm So I Can Go to Flow Traders Summer Business Course

Would it be unreasonable to ask for time off in the 2nd week (Thursday and Friday) so that I can go to the Flow Traders Summer Business Course. I would really want to work at Flow Traders full-time, but given I would be currently interning at a prop firm, would it be fine to ask for 2 days off early on (obviously I wouldn't say it's to go to the Business Course.) Thanks for your input!

 

I still haven't experienced much of most prop firms, but their culture seems very fun and chill (work hard play hard), a lot of young people, and seemingly less pressure/turnover than places like Optiver while still having top tier compensation and an awesome office, plus being in New York seems nice.

 

If my incoming intern this summer asks for Thursday and Friday off in the second week of his internship he's not getting a return offer. I'll know whats up now

 

Have you been accepted to the Flow Traders Business Course this summer? I just had my mental math test! Do you know what is the cutoff is? Or how did you perform on that?
