What's Harder: MBB vs Tier 2 / Big4 Strategy Consulting vs EB / BB

Saw a post here comparing MBB to EB / BBs, was wondering as to where that comparison might stand if one were to add other consulting firms such as OW, Accenture, Strat&, Parthenon, etc. to the mix!

Do rankings like this even make sense? I get some people want to tear their elbow ligaments jerking themselves off for getting into one firm over another, but does it really matter? Who cares. It is 100% based on luck, circumstance and background. There is no general rule. I've heard of people getting into MBBs and being screened out pre-interview for Big 4 roles as well as people making it to top BBs and not getting R1s for MMs. Please stop these arbitrary rankings.
