Thank BCG 1 - how did you prep for the cases? Did u find partners to practice with or did you just review frameworks and try to practice on your own? Also did you get any specific questions on why you were changing firms?

Prep lounge, my friends at the firm, my friends at Bain/McK as well

Yes, I prepared an extremely cohesive story around why I was changing firms, with no negativity about old firm

Figured as much. Thanks for the input. Hadn't heard of prep lounge but looks like an interesting option.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
