Yes!!! Offers from both Bain and BCG (along with a couple other operating companies). Very excited… at first.
But now? Feeling a bit melancholy, actually. Not sure why… Is that it? All this anticipation and preparation and it’s over within a week? Maybe I’m just tired.
Big decision coming up. I think I’ve decided on consulting (at least for the summer). That leaves me with two very strong options. At first glance, I’m torn. I think I have a split personality, and both firms represent one side! Maybe I’ll learn more over the “sell weekends” where both firms flip-the-tables and try to wine-and-dine you. Will keep you posted…

congrats! i’ve followed your blog from the start, it’s so nice of you to record all this and give prospective students a glimpse of what’s in future for us
good luck, and do write more about how you prepared for consulting interviews when you can… great going again!
thanks! appreciate the comment! i’m still kind of shocked at how few hbs blogs there are… glad i can open the black box a little bit. good luck with applications — if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Awesome effort and great result! Can’t go wrong either way with those options.
Thank you admin. I hear you, the one time I really felt like I got to know HBS a lil better is when I read ahead of curve and visited campus/attended a class- I think I attended TOM which had a prof. who brought a whistle to maintain order, lol. It was awesome experience, alas I didn’t get the interview call. I got calls from CBS,Chicago etc,so waiting anxiously for that coveted admit in the near future. Fingers crossed.
