depends on your plan after banking

For RX: if you are interested in going to debt funds or regular PE shops, RX is known to place people into distressed funds such as Ares, Oaktree, Canyon, as well as generalist PE. From my conversation with the analysts, they also receive interview opportunities with regular PE shops as well as mega funds. RX will also give you a good niche advantage at early of your career.

For JPM SF, since coverage will be TMT and HC, primary exits are VC, technology PE, corporate, as well as regular PE. However, since it is industry coverage, you will be able doing a variety of products, but BB nowadays do primarily financing. If you are interested in Tech, then this is something you should choose.

With that in mind, there are also other considerations.

I sent you a personal message.

Take it as it comes JJ

Can you elaborate on "BB nowadays do primarily financing"? I'm elite boutique over BB almost anyday, but you have to admit there are deals when the BBs do get the advisory roles over the boutique guys....or are you arguing this is just the case then its a deal that requires financing or bank debt so the BB gets the advisory role because of their balance sheet? im very hungover so i apologize if this is phrased awkwardly haha
