What is most exciting about it?

What is it of Sales and Trading that excites you the most? (not the money please) Why did you decide to go into S&T over other branches of IB and over other type of carreers? I'm interviewing for a S&T internship soon and I want to get some answers to these questions to see if I can relate to that or not. Thanks in advance...

I think the most common answer is the excitment and the quick decision-making, although not as much learning curve relative to other IB divisions.
