Hi I’m Jason, a 3 rd year University of Waterloo student studying math and I recently came across your blog, which spurred my interest in consulting.”.

Granted, the math is more complicated but the principle remains. I was following my guiding principles as a consultant: • Do whatever it takes to keep your word. In other words, they’re charging the client 135% more than they are paying you.) Let’s say last year you made $125,000 as a subcontractor.

As you progress to more senior levels, the more conventional understanding of leadership kicks in, where you are expected to empower, guide, and train your team to satisfy the client’s demands. While it may not seem like it, a strong foundation in maths is often essential for consultants to succeed.

I have a scientific background, so the "math" is not really the problem, it is more the method to calculate what they ask for, with business tools, and to do it efficiently and quickly enough. I would suggest getting a GRE Math practice book and practice "word problems". Thank you so much for helping all of us!

Math Practice. I know that seems somewhat extreme, but math is an integral part of consulting and partners can’t risk you making a mistake when the client is paying the firm so much money. For many APDs who use computer algorithms to do their math calculations, this will be one of the hardest parts of the interview process.

If math is difficult for you, if you don't naturally "see" the insights that factually exist but aren't obvious, if you're a creative lateral thinker (but not a step-by-step linear thinker), these are competitive dis advantages in consulting. Stress levels go down when your daily work requires you to do things that are nearly effortless.
