Sophomore year feels early to think about consulting — but it’s actually the perfect time to get ahead. In this episode, MC coach Kabreya Ghaderi breaks down a simple roadmap using the 3A framework: Access, Ability, and Acceleration.

You’ll learn how to:

Choose the right firms and offices
Build a focused networking plan
Avoid the “spray and pray” approach most candidates fall into

Kabreya also shares how to strengthen your resume, find meaningful sophomore-year experiences, and start building the case + fit skills firms expect.
