2024 Class Size
I know it’s a bad job market but does anybody know if 2024 SA and FT classes are smaller than normal? If so by how much?
For context, I got to a semi-target and feel like we massively under placed this year.

as above, also feels smaller class sizes + timelines were faster for SA.
but can anyone in-the-know substantiate this? for instance, are classes 80-90% smaller relative to previous years?
(Confidential) some firms', like SVB's, class sizes are allegedly 100% smaller than previous years
