336: Joining McKinsey with a 2.1 GPA

Here we share the very detailed approach we used to place a client, into McKinsey USA, with a 2.1/4.0 GPA. This is the lowest GPA we have ever placed into McKinsey since Firmsconsulting was founded.

If you genuinely find our podcasts useful, we would sincerely appreciate you leaving a genuine review on iTunes. The mission of Firmsconsulting is to make the world better by arming leaders around the world with the necessary skills to solve mankind's toughest problems. The simple step of leaving a genuine iTunes review will help us greatly in pursuing our mission.

Good luck to everyone going through the case interview recruitment process.
