Ok…assuming you are talking about the summer going into your junior year, there are still very few IB options for you with strong banks. You are better off targeting boutiques, and other relevant internship positions rather than being set on a BB SA position. Next year you should be charging those spots - this summer you just want something relevant.

That said, it doesn’t hurt to apply and sophs have landed these positions before - so by all means make the push - GS and MS are top players as far as BBs go - JPM is strong, BAML, Citi, DB, CS, Bar, etc are all solid BBs. Then there are elite boutiques, but you can find lists for these and MM boutiques as well by performing a quick search

PM me if you have other questions
