Too old for consulting?

Got an offer to join one of the MBBs at the AC/BA level. Graduated uni a while ago, took some breaks in between so turned 27 this year. Am I too old to be starting out at the entry level? If I manage to stick to consulting, by what age can I reasonably make Partner?

No, not too old. 

If everything goes well, you can make partner before 40. Should take ~12 years (already including a 2-year MBA, which may not be required).

Hi there,

Not at all! 27 is a great age to start your consulting journey. :-)

All the best,

Florian
