Recap of First Year on the Job

Hi All - I am curious to hear different perspective's from people's first year on the job in IB (analyst or associate). Would be interested to hear how many pitches you did in your first year and how many live deals? Also, whether you were at a BB, EB or MM? Just interested to see what a sense of "normal" is for a first year as things are slower right now and not sure if I am getting as many reps in my first year as would normally occur. Thanks.
