Best BMO CM Groups

Looking forward to my SA 23 internship at BMO Chicago, but I’m curious about which groups are best within the firm. I’ve heard good things about LevFin and Industrials, but I’d like some more insight. Mainly looking to maximize live deal exposure and set myself up for success full-time, potentially even recruit for full-time PE roles. Thanks in advance!

Bump.

Also, OP, have you learnt anything since this post through personal research or otherwise?
