Overall Experience
To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
I enjoyed how interactive the days were, however, I just wish it were longer which is always a good thing. It is a shame that there were not more market teaching sessions to learn more about the industry, but I am sure this would have been the case if we were not in the middle of a pandemic.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to J.P. Morgan
They seriously value being different. If you are like me and are studying at a non-target university it does not matter once you are at the insight week, so you are on par with all of your peers.
