I doubt academics count for much with this thing. Decent work experience and interesting extra-curricular stuff combined with a killer cover letter probably got most people a place.

I'm on the waiting list. Is that just a glorified way of saying that we have no chance of getting in lol? Quite a few people are on this "waiting list" by the looks of it...

True, just trying to make myself feel better :smile:

.

And considering the number of people on the waiting list it does seem to pretty much be a glorified rejection as you would imagine very few people are going to decline an offer for the programme.

Has anyone heard anything about the 17/18th yet regardless of whether it is waiting list or rejection? Everyone who's heard so far seems to be 10/11th....

Who? I thought no one on here had offers for that date yet. Surely someone must get in. I haven't heard yet, and taking 'no news is good news' with all these waiting list things coming out :tongue:

Not hopeful of getting in. I'd like a response from J P Morgan, whatever the out come.

Same about the waiting list.
Does anybody know of any other similar events/insight days at IBs that are still open for applications?
Ive only heard about Deloitte/Pwc insight days but they arent completely related.

Thanks!

Go back the last couple of pages, a couple said they were put on the waiting list and they had applied for the 17/18th. I haven't seen anyone with an offer for those dates though so fingers cross that means us :smile:

That was the email I got. Really not holding out much hope, considering the fact that they didn't even put "dear ___" or anything, I'm thinking this is a mass email that everyone who doesn't win a place will receive.

same!
