So consulting pays more than BigLaw? Hmmmm....
Wish I realized that a while back. Is there a general "personality type" comparison between biglaw, ibanking and consulting?

And consulting requires no real math skills. Just fake ability as expressed through cases. Really, and I'm not kidding here, all that's required of consultants is the ability to bullshit well when asked, keep their mouth shut otherwise, and monkey PPT like it's nobody's business. Emphasis on monkeying PPT.
Ibanking requires some brains but mostly just the rare ability to function normally in the absence of any sleep whatsoever.
In these respects, law, banking, and consulting do overlap nicely.
