Our Associate Consultant class is meaningfully larger than our Consultant class every year. That’s not exactly undergrads vs MBAs, but comparable.

Thanks! that’s more along what I was after anyways (coming in as an associate as a 1 year out of UG experienced hire)

At BCG, our consultant class is a bit larger than our associate class. I’d estimate it at 40/60 for A/C

Varies a ton between firms. Bain’s model has more ACs than Cs. We’re probably 2:1 Cs vs As. McK has more As (their post MBA title) than BAs but I don’t know how closely the ratio mirrors ours.

Not MECE 😎 Some of us enter MBB as experienced Cs with no MBA. Or post grad.

Agree here but I think the % is still relatively small, no?

Hey all, first time poster here and still consider myself fairly new to consulting so please be kind. Questions for past/ current Accenture folks: I noticed in some threads that SC level only applies to strategy consulting. Could Product Manager be SC level if I have my MBA or is it not even considered a Strategy role? And do they only consider you an “MBA hire” if it’s top tier MBA? Lastly, I’ve seen quite a big salary range for MBA hires. Anyone care to share the latest? TIA.
