Need Help! Discussing Deal Exp. As Sophomore?

Currently a sophomore working at a boutique as a spring analyst. Staffed on a live sell-side M&A process in the ~$100M range.

Not really doing much, did some market research for our CIM and compiled some metrics and multiples from a sheet we had that would help my analyst with comps analysis. Not sure to what degree I need to speak about the deal in my interviews for 2022 SA, but would love some guidance. 

Definitely learning about the process and the work that you do as an analyst, just not given much responsibility. Also have an internship this summer at a MM where I should be given more technical work as it is a much more structured program.
