Without knowing your alternatives, I would say go for the skillsets. Your at ground Zero now...having a PwC name and experience will help position you to a good MBA program and perhaps later Strat work. If you are looking to position yourself to get a good MBA, make sure you find a good mentor (usually you can find 2 - 1 formally assigned, and 1 informal mentor) - leverage your relationship and experiences with them to get you a good recommendation into the B-school of choice.
Good luck |

Difference between doing 3-5 years as a consultant out of college versus industry experience?
-What are the advantages of working in PWC in their GRMS practice versus a rotational program within GE, Time Warner and vice versa. The end goal is to get into MBA school and work for a top strategy firm afterwards.
