range for first year analyst bonuses

What is typically the range for first year analyst bonuses? Like, how low do they go, and how high do they go? I am particularly interested in MM firms (I am a first year at CIBC); however, curious to know about BB and boutiques as well. I've heard from some that the range last year was 70k to 80k for top analysts, with the avg. being 75k. Any info would be great.

Much thanks.

any normal analyst who shows up and works their 80-100 hrs a week regardless of how shitty will got at least 60. Unless they really f*d up socially.
