Social Policy degree for Consulting

Hello, I’m in Year 13 and I have received an offer to study International, Social and Public Policy with Politics at LSE. I’m worried that the degree may not be strong enough even though it’s at LSE, to be respected by an MBB firm. I’m not really sure how these firms recruit but I know consulting is something I’d be interested in. How would this degree compare to other applicants and is it good enough for consulting, maybe even investment banking (although I’m not too keen on this)?
Thank you
