How do I break into the consulting world?

I am a 23 year old from the United States finishing my Masters degree in International Business Management in France at Grenoble Ecole de Management. Although I am in a Masters program, it is still very difficult to break into the consulting world. I tried searching for mentorship programs at some of the top consulting firms, but from what I have seen, they are only offering these programs to people with diverse backgrounds, which I do not have. Any tips for improving my resume or any free online courses that you may know of would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Would it be smarter to pursue two master's?

I want to be a substance abuse counselor, and I've heard that I can get a masters in both psychology or social work. Would it be smarter to just get one of those or do both? If so am I able to do it at the same time?

In Australia, how big is the difference between the *content* of a Bachelor's Degree with Honours and an equivalent Master's Degree?

I understand that Bachelor + Honours degrees typically take 4 years, while Master’s degrees take about 2. But is there a difference in the *content* of these degrees? I'm specifically interested in La Trobe University, but advice about other universities are welcome as well! For reference, these undergraduate vs these postgraduate degrees from La Trobe (which are all health degrees, as upon exiting any of these, you can register with the relevant board and be a practitioner): - Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) VS Master of Occupational Therapy Practice - Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) VS Master of Physiotherapy Practice - Bachelor of Social Work (Honours) VS Master of Social Work - Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours) VS Master of Speech Pathology There may be better examples from other Australian Universities!

Looking for science related career path?

I am really unsure what I want to do.. No Med school, no patient care, no teaching. I really enjoy science itself but sitting and doing research my whole life just sounds boring. If anyone can help with a lucrative career path that has to do with science. I really liked immunology, etc in college. Also would like to hear thoughts about Masters Programs if I’m unsure what my career path will be . Thanks!

Master's Program help appreciated

Hello everyone! I'm new here and am hoping to get some answers. I am enrolled at SNHU to get my bachelor's in human services concentration in substance abuse and a minor in organizational leadership. I plan on getting a master's after I'm done with my bachelor's. I started my educational journey with the intention of becoming a substance abuse counselor and have since changed my mind. I want to be involved in policy writing and work with the community. I've been researching jobs related to this and have come up with a policy analyst. I planned on getting my master's in social work but am wondering if public admin would be better. I don't only want to work in policy, I want to work with people too. Any advice is welcome and appreciated.

I am planning on playing college sports, what are some tactics that I should use to help me stay on track with school work?

I would like to go D2 or D3 in volleyball. 1/3 of the graduating class at my school graduates with their AA degree. This is something that I am planning on doing. Though I don't want to get into the real world at the ripe age of 20, so I am planning on getting my masters after completing my major.

I am an undergraduate student in my second year I didn't do so well last semester and my gpa dropped to a 2.1, can you give me some advice as to how to prepare for grad school? Is it too late for me?

How do I prepare myself for a PhD at MIT, or other Ivy league or top schools in the world's? Should I also get my masters before my PhD program and will that shorten or extend how long my doctorate program will be? I am also planning to get a master before the PhD though since it isn't that close I still wanted to hear an opinion from an expert. I am currently a computer science student at Florida polytechnic university if that helps as well. FYI: I plan to do better this upcoming semester and hopefully raise my GPA close to a 3.0 by the end of either the fall or spring. And I plan to start getting some research opportunities with professors.
