McKinsey is highly choosy if i am not wrong.

How does one get into it, say his grades are above average, not the top of the class.

Graduation was from a great college, PG is from a old college which is currently for common parlance a T2 MBA college and has quite good number of alums at McKinsey Insights at good positions.

Anyone from MBB , who could help me understand how should one navigate?

You should reach out to the MBA alums via LinkedIn. I think they will have a good perspective on what it takes.

Read that McK is paying 2K higher than BCG this year which means BCG will probably raise again next year to at least match. However, they can’t just copy McK with 2K to match because that would look bad so they’ll have to beat it again. Then McK and Bain will follow. Barring a devastating recession, I’m guessing this means MBB is all getting raises again next year?

Does anyone feel that the Oil and Gas industry is the most discriminatory industry of all? They won’t even look at resume without O&G experience!
