Here's how I picked:
1. consulting life is hard -- you are almost never home, so selecting a city to live in is less important than who you know in a city. I picked a place I knew I would find close friends to chill out with on weekends.
2. choosing a partner who leads studies at a particular office you work for is almost as important as choosing a firm (often more). Research them -- each partner has a pro/con.
3. lastly, select for the type of work you'll excel most in. If it's finance, do not pick SF. If it's tech, do not miami.
