In Reply To: Your analysis seems reasonable. If it were a first job, I would worry about it more. But an internship? Don't know. Would you want to work permanenetly at either place? Any money difference? The JP Morgan thing will have classmates, I expect. That can be nice. If the little firm really is a slice of heaven, I would go there, just for the peace of mind and good kharma. Maybe you could do a little bit of questioning for each offerer as to what type of work you will do...basically try to get a little more certainty in what your summer will be like. FYI: When I recruited BA's for McK, I really didn't care that much about where they did their internships. I was more interested in grades (and what majored in) and test scores. If they made it past the resume screen, all I cared about was performance in the interview.
Message: When you were recruiting, what was the general cutoff GPA of Business or Econ majors? I realize that standards may be much higher in this economy.
