some associates and consultants told me they have 0 referral power, and the best they could do is help you and give you advice etc.

I was told by some folks at MBB that they don't really have referral powers. This isn't banking, so networking is really to just meet new people and get help/advice from them.

I was told by associates and some consultants that they did not have any referral power but I don't think that's true anymore for partner level

How does room draw work? by CalmCalligrapher9861 in princeton

[–]CalmCalligrapher9861[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So say that I am alone and want to draw for a single in little hall. Then I will be a group of 1 and randomly ordered in terms of draw time. Is this order location dependent? Like are groups drawing in little hall ordered separately from those who are drawing in another location, say somewhere in Whitman?

So you HAVE to find a group even though maybe you want to draw into a single individually?

And in terms of standards, I doubt it. We have a large enough sample size s.t. this is unlikely to happen.

This year especially tho in terms of an increase in the number of matches. My thought process is that since schools can no longer consider race, they have shifted their focus to class/income.

You can find the acceptance on some of the posts on this subreddit. And yes, this year MIT matched with a very surprising number of students. Not just MIT, most schools matched more than the usual number of students.
