Deloitte, the largest professional services firm in the world, likes itself a little too much. It’s like Mindy Kaling without the charm or clever sexual overtones.

The firm hires thousands each year across the globe and harps about it. It gives back to the community and harps about it. And, most annoyingly, is a hard place to get a job and harps about it.

Part of Global CEO Punit Renjen’s job is to do much of this harping. The latter claim, that Deloitte is a more exclusive place than Harvard University, came up again in this interview with the Australian Financial Review:

Deloitte is harder to get into than Harvard University based on the number of applicants it hires. It may become even more exclusive under a secret five-point plan by new global chief executive Punit Renjen. “Less than 2 per cent of applicants get into Deloitte,” the Indian-born Mr Renjen told The Australian Financial Review while visiting Australia this week. “We hired 62,000 people last year, out of 3.5 million resumes we received.”

Since one of Deloitte’s major trades is numbers, the math actually checks out. Plus, it’s a nice soundbite that the firm can toss around to impress people or journalists who cover accounting firms and run out of things to say. But what’s always been condescending and straight-up misleading about the claim is that it lacks any meaningful context. Here’s what Adrienne wrote back in 2012 that still holds true today:

Harvard didn’t come out and say they wanted to admit 250,000 more students over five years, which FINS figured out came out to 140 new hires at Deloitte a day. Of 34,302 applicants for the class of 2016, Harvard accepted 2,032 students or 5.9 percent of the pool. We aren’t even comparing apples to apples here, people. Hell, we aren’t even comparing apples to elephants.

Nevertheless, he we are again, talking about how “exclusive” Deloitte is compared to ol’ Crimson. And that’s fine. But it’s worth noting that there are quite a few other things that are harder than getting into Harvard. With very little effort, in fact, we found this Business Insider post that lists 15 of them:
