After reading some of the comments about consultancy and Oxbridge I thought I would share my experiences. I am currently holding an offer from an MBBB consultancy having not gone to Oxbridge (Or a London Uni for that matter). I did a banking internship in my penultimate year but apart from that have no special experience, and no outstanding merits or languages etc.I write not to brag, but in response to some of the posts I&apos;ve seen replying to students seeking advice on applications, saying "You can forget about getting into the top tier if you haven&apos;t been to oxbridge." I will admit that in all my interviews my interviewer had gone to oxbridge, and so have the majority of the candidates interviewing with me.Nevertheless it is possible, so don&apos;t be disheartened.
