I have been a member of this site for over 5 years, ever since I was in high school. I asked people on this forum for advice about where to go to college, where to intern, how to prepare for interviews, etc. and even though I didn't get an SA gig, two days ago I interviewed for and accepted a FT offer from a BB bank starting next year. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way.
