Am I good enough for good Consulting firms (hopefully MBB)?

Background: 26 year-old international student graduating next year (not an english speaking country) with MSc in Social Policy (LSE). I have Bachelors degree in business studies from National university. I have approx three years of experience in local government which extensively works with UN and World Bank.

Goal: Ultimately, I want to pursue my career in management consulting. I think it is an attractive sector with lots of possibilities.

Question: I'm prepared to work hard, but I think it would be easier for me if my goal is realistic. Do you think I can get into MBB? What are the much needed qualities of an ideal management consultant (management skills, technical knowledge and manner wise)?
