2023 SA EB Rankings

  1. PJT RSG, Evercore M&A
  2. CVP M&A, Moelis M&A
  3. Lazard M&A
  4. PJT M&A
  5. PWP M&A

Went through recruiting and I know a lot of sophomores who also recruited. I’m also from a target. The list above is objectively the general sentiment we all had when recruiting/how exploding offers were leveraged. This list also indirectly parallels the Vault’s 25 ranking.

This is pretty false info, this is very subjective based on your “target” school and alumni. When I was in school we often chose the bottom half over Moelis. Do you work at Moelis and know something else? I’ve also seen many vault ranking and league tables that would not “parallel” with this post.

 

Yeah, left Lazard for another one of these LOL. I'm sure my experiences vastly differs from sentiments of sophomore recruits. Also, I'm in NYC so I thought that's what this was referring to. In SF/MP Moelis destroys Laz PWP and PJT. But in NYC the M&A dynamic is much different (my bad)
