Although it wouldn't surprise me at all if banks rejected anybody that gets full marks with plenty of time to spare.

Normally RBC send an email after the three days telling you to expect to hear back within 4-6 weeks.

Hello

I just started applying for M&A Summer 2017.

I was wondering how fast places might fill this year- am I at a disadvantage for applying after they have been open for 3 weeks?
