SA Class Sizes (Consolidated)

I find it really surprising by 2022 we don't have an aggregated list of summer analyst class sizes across banks because they vary significantly and can be extremely helpful for recruiting and estimating WLB. I also know that class sizes have changed following COVID.

If you know how many summer analysts your bank took in 2022 for NYC or the entire US, please comment below and I will add. For the sake of comparison, please only include interns working between junior and senior year. I'll update as comments come in. Happy to expand this to multiple years / by group / full time sizes if interest is there.
