<p>I guess the bias I have developed is that it is extremely difficult to break into GS/MS IBD, whereas with JPM, not so much...</p>
<p>Anyhow, I have just been trying to figure out how to stand out from everyone else for bschool admissions (even though it is still a few years down the road). I guess I really should just take a step back and look at the bigger picture. Thanks Alexandre.</p>
<p>I would say that all of the big 3 (GS,MS and JPM are equally tough to get into). JPM is reputed for taking the most, therefore making it easier in terms of chances...but not in terms of quality. However, JPM is also know for having the toughest and most demanding program. I got an offer from GS but I did not get offers from MS or JPM.</p>
<p>And one more thning...you will stand out by just being yourself Botangers. We are each individuals. Follow your passions, excell at whatever you love doing, always take the time to step back and re-adjust your course if needed (we often veer off course when bogged down with all the details), plan well and the rest will take care of itself!</p>
<p>what is MS and JPM, Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan??</p>
<p>you are correct</p>
<p>I had no idea either</p>
