P72 Academy Spring Sessions

Hey all,

Was accepted to point72 academy spring session and wondering if anyone knows aboutit/has done it and can speak to it. Curious if it's a meaningful program (at least somewhat selective) and hopefully contrasts from the GS possibilities series which was utterly useless.

I want to have the chance to ask questions/find people to connect with the fund is one of my top choices. I've heard mixed responses; on one hand people are saying it's open to anyone who applies but on the other they made me submit a whole application so I don't really know what to expect.

Thanks
