As the title says, New FT Analyst @ PWP/GUGG and am a non core student with a close to perfect gpa and high standardized test scores. Do you think I would have a chance at top PE recruiting? Where do people at a firm like PWP/GUGG exit usually?

not op but curious about PWP as I will be an incoming FT analyst in 2021
pwp is 5x better than gugg for exits just saying
wouldn't say 5x but yeah only a couple of groups at gugg recruit really well
Any insight into RX exits?
Bump curious about exits at PWP and best group for exits (apart from HC)
Yes you'll definitely have shot at top MF except KKR and BX since those are looking for HYP
Hey prospect can you stick to the IB forum? I know multiple PWP kids not from HYP that interviewed at Blackstone.
the name plate is outdated. your friend was an exception. KKR and BX do primarily look for HYP.
