PavementHow common is it for PE associates to attend Board and management meetings at the pre-MBA level? Is this the norm for most funds or something that varies from place to place?

It is very common for the Analyst / Associate to sit in on the meetings and take minutes.

Play the long game - give back, help out, mentor - just don't ever forget where you came from. #Bootstrapped
