Internship experience

Hi guys,

Not sure if this is a silly/stupid questions, but it has been constantly on my mind. I am currently interning at an IB (not super prestigious but not boutique either). It has been a great experience as they are really open to teaching.

With this said, what types of mistakes are acceptable? I mean i'm working really, but it is impossible never to make a mistake. When i'm working on a ppt they might change the way I designed it/reorganize it/edit it or i might ask a question twice as i didn't understand it initially. Do these count as huge dings against me?

What were some of the mistakes that you guys made during your internships?
