  • 9. Would you recommend J.P. Morgan to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • Because uni degree's are pointless, I am 18 and effectively in the same position as most graduates without the debt in the same time I will be significantly further in my career than them without the debt...


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to J.P. Morgan?
  • Understand what you are in for, this place is good for your career and can help get you far as well as paying well. However, at the age of 18 moving out working full time (more than full time if you want to do well) and trying to get you life together will be the hardest thing you will ever do! its not like uni, its not as easy but It will repay you.
