one of the few new FT hires...

i interned at a bb last summer but opted to sign with a boutique for FT. i found out new hires who didn't intern last summer make up only 10% of the entire analyst class.

group placement will occur after a general program - i'm worried that i won't get into a good group, or that i won't be able to fit in, etc., because i'm one of just a few people who don't know what they're getting into in terms of culture and connections. is this a real concern or am i being crazy? advice greatly appreciated.

thanks - any tips on how to go about "catching up"? i guess i could talk to the alums from my school who recruited me, but i don't really know anyone in the incoming analyst class.
