Hi guys,
I am doing an introductory interview tomorrow with an associate at PE. I go to a target school and have a major GPA of 3.9 but cumulative lower than this because I slacked off freshman year. I have only prepared for IB interview questions but not PE questions. Do you think simply reading for the LBO section of the interview prep is adequate for a summer analyst PE interview?
