I am an undergrad business student at a top university. I am very interested in working at one of the top strategy firms but I heard that these firms generally look for students with very high GPAs. I have a 3.4 and a lot of relevant work experience. What are my chances at getting an interview and how can I position myself to compete with students with better grades when I apply next year?
