QUESTIONS ABOUT GSAM

Hi all,

Currently a rising sophomore interested in recruiting for GSAM, have a few questions about the division though.

  1. What are the primary groups within GSAM, and do you apply to a specific one for SA or are you placed within one randomly during your SA?
  2. How competitive is it to get GSAM from a target school?
  3. If I apply to both GS IBD and GSAM, will that reduce my chances at getting an interview at either?
  4. What do exits look like?
