Just using this forum as an outlet to release my frustration.
Had 2 superdays so far, one BB (MS/JP/GS) and one EB (EVR/PJT/PWP). One of them was my absolute dream firm, and not getting in was a real kick in the balls, especially when seeing the "Incoming Summer Analyst" updates on LinkedIn. Sometimes I just look in the mirror and want to smash my face for not seizing these opportunities.
Anyway, back to the king grind
