My usual response to this kind of question (and I've made many responses) is that specific course doesn't matter too much (and I've had chats with our HR team about this - they judge candidates on many criteria, but course isn't particularly important. We do, however, have a lot more applicants and interns with Finance / Econs backgrounds, but that's more due to the fact that candidates from those backgrounds are much more likely to apply, and are typically more prepared, fluent with interview questions, etc.).
However, with much more vocational courses (Medicine is the obvious one, but there are others, and maybe Pharmacy is one of them, but I don't know what the course involves), there's a slight question mark over motivation.
That said, I've interviewed candidates from Medicine backgrounds, Pharmacy sounds like STEM to me (which is good!), and UCL is a very good university. So, I'm not sure what your options are, but I'd think this is absolutely fine for IB (I'm not in consulting but I'd guess it's fine for that too).
Count WACCula is spot on - University name over course and UCL is a top target for UK undergrad. You won't have a less chance of breaking in purely down to what course you studied. Imo from breaking into IB and viewing it from the other side (interviewing people etc) I actually think STEM will give you an advantage to stand out and have a differentiated story for why you want to get into IB. Much more interesting hearing a Medic or Pharmacy student's reasons for breaking in rather than the same Target, Econ undergrad (capable though they may be).
