BCG Folks: What are the differences between PL1 and PL2 other than tenure? Does PL2 receive more complex cases, larger teams, greater responsibilities (I.e, Partner level) etc?

Thanks

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace?

Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
