Half of the summer applicants getting interviews is not dead wrong. I don't know how things work at Haas/Stanford, but i'm very surprised its that low. I know for a fact other top schools interview well over 50% of applicants. I've seen it first hand.
As for your summer internship/transfer hypothesis, I disagree again. Bain usually takes the bulk of their future associates from the summer, at least at the few top schools I have direct contact/experience with. McKinsey, however, takes the bulk during full-time recruiting.
We'll just have to agree to disagree. |

What is your background and what do you do now? You don't work for McK, Bain or BCG (you got dinged 1st or 2nd round McK interviews last year) but you seem to have lot of confidence with "trust me" type of attitude with lots of numbers/figures/statements that brings out "what?!? this guy for real?" to the readers.

How about for someone who is applying to an associate position 1-2 years after their MBA?
I'm thinking of joining another strat consulting firm and then reapplying to McKinsey in 1-2 years. How tough is this process? If I manage through it, will I have to restart as a first year associate?
