I want to be a consultant. I dont have a HPYSM degree. Am i done for?

<p>Oh, it is different consulting work. And they are “primarily” accounting firms. But it is consulting work, and the consulting arms at each of them are HUGE, far larger than McKinsey and BCG. </p>

<p>I don’t know much about McKinsey. I have (American) acquaintances that work for BCG, in Germany. Met them in Stockholm. Surprisingly, perhaps, all accountants! The two I remember best had undergraduate degrees from Boston U, and from George Mason. (Maybe I hang out with the wrong people…)</p>
