I was wondering if people had advice/recommendations for someone in high school planning to go into consulting. Things like a suggested major (some say that it doesn't matter, but the slightest difference matters to me, what do employers prefer?), getting an intern, clubs, etc. I'm most concerned about a major/concentration in university, it's a choice I'm going to have to make soon.

It doesn't matter. Just don't do women's studies. You're already ahead of the curve if you know what management consulting is.

I just checked out the consulting club at the school that I'm planning to go to... http://www.utconsulting.ca/index.php
More than 95% of its members are in engineering ~.~
Hm anyways... I just have a question for some people in consulting, or maybe just to anyone in general.
I made a recommendation to someone, to do something one way. Told him that it would be better and why several times. In the end, he messes it up because he doesn't listen. It's pissing me off to no end right now, is it normal? Would this kind of situation come up often for someone in consulting? This won't really affect my career goals, I'm just wondering.
