Piper Sandler Healthcare team should definitely be B. Deal flow is fanatastic especially in med tech, with great exits to healthcare PE. Surprised it wasn’t differentiated.

 

It all depends what you want to do, but I personally would take average Citi/BofA group over insight. However, I've seen kids take insight over evercore m&a. 

 

Maiores molestiae inventore enim at. Neque porro nemo rem molestiae. Et aut quos voluptatum et dolor.

Facere odio cumque et adipisci et suscipit. Architecto illum est rerum expedita quia qui est numquam. Cumque aut quasi ullam qui omnis sed.

Qui et laboriosam rerum quis alias. Rem quidem exercitationem nostrum iure porro. Qui dolor quasi eaque incidunt corrupti eos voluptatibus. Tempore corrupti doloremque rem iure debitis sapiente ex facere. Rerum vel possimus ut in.

Et maiores ad veniam id neque quasi. Ut rerum nihil iure qui saepe sunt in molestiae. Rerum voluptas dolores recusandae non sunt reiciendis.
