Hi guys,I'm wondering if somebody could give me some honest advice and tell me what my realistic prospects are regarding management consulting. I don't want to give too much information on a public forum, but my general credentials are:- 1st class BA joint honours degree in a political subject with a language from a Russell Group uni - I also received an award for academic performance at graduation- A position on a society comittee while at uni- A bit under 1 years work experience with a reputable think-tank/consultancy abroad- Unfortunately, 300 UCAS points in 'soft' subjects (taken years ago when I had no idea what I wanted to do in the future and was more interested in socialising etc.) which I feel could be a problemAlthough this information is limited, could anybody give me a general idea of the type of firms I could possibly be looking at? e.g. Accenture, Deloitte etc. (if I could network/make it through initial screenings). Would MBB be possible or out of my scope?Thanks in advance for any advice given.

Morning Dan,Big 4/equivalent very doable, friends of mine have got in with a very similar CV to yourself. MBB, a very serious push, most would say near impossible. Good luck whichever route you choose!

Thank you very much Matrix. It's nice to get a realistic view of where I'm at now.Is it a possible/realistic to gain experience in a Big 4 for a few years and then move across to MBB?I am fluent in one east asian language and am learning a second. Perhaps this will help separate me from the crowd slightly in the future? Or are languages fairly irrelevant?Thanks again for any advice!

I'm probably not the best to answer those questions, though they have appeared on here quite a bit, have a search and see where that gets you...

Ok cheers!
