I haven’t heard of too many people landing a legitimate consulting internship after sophomore year, but I’m sure it’s possible. Most consulting firms are looking for people rising seniors for internships.

As for the journalism thing another poster mentioned, I wouldn’t hide journalism experience or anything. I am joining an MBB next year full time and I was a journalism major with pretty much just journalism internship experience. If you have leadership experience and examples of impact through that, then they’ll be interested. Consulting is not investment banking – they actually like a variety of backgrounds.
