LSEMSc Economic History worth it for finance jobs (IB/Equity Research)?

轮廓:

  • 8.2/10, BSc Economics at a Top Indian College (Currently Final Year)
  • Financial Risk Management (FRM) P1 Cleared with top quartiles
  • GRE: 168V/162V
  • Work Experience/Leadership: Business Development/Management Trainee Internship at a large National Optical Retailer. (Involved mostly in e-commerce and Product)
  • Leadership Role in the University's Finance Club.

Context:

  • I am interested in the programme and have already applied. I do not think I am eligible for an MFin since I lack a relevant Finance Internship.
  • Also applying to Warwick MSc Finance & Economics,LBSMiM, Cambridge MPhil Management.
  • Will definitely complete a relevant internship before going if I am admitted.

问题):

  • Is the MSc Economic History programme valued byIBrecruiters or only Finance Grads are considered?
  • Which is better forIB,LBSMiM orLSEMSC Econ Hist?
  • If I do get in toLSE我最终要做的是关于如何最大化我有机会降落的任何建议IBrole after graduation?

I feel like for all schools on your list you've only chosen the second best master to get intoIB/PE.

LSE-> MSc Finance (+ Private Equity)

Warwick -> MSc Finance

LBS- >主要财务分析

Cambridge -> MPhil Finance

ForLSE经济史,我认为它不会特别好。LSEhas tons of masters but only a few are worth pursuing if you want to stay in the UK. Warwick places very well on undergrad level (second toLSEin the UK) but I can't speak to the reputation of their masters. Always felt like they were either really academically focused or sort of a second chance on a good name if your undergrad wasn't strong.

LBSMIM是众所周知的IB/Pe.

Cambridge MPhil is immensely academic and once again, probably more useful for consulting. I'd be amazed if you could do mich finance in a programme that's actually supposed to prepare you for a PhD in management.

Hope that helps.

I feel like I do not have the profile for a proper MFin at these schools due to my lack of work experience.LBSis quite open to Indian students and it is relatively uncommon for us to have Brand Name finance internships during undergrad, so I will try my luck with the MFA.

Could you rankLSEMSc Econ Hist, Warwick MSc Finance and Economics,LBSMiM for me?LBSMFA will definitely be my first and best option if I make it there.

P.S thanks for all the advice.

Sure. I'd say

  1. LBSMiM (assuming you do lots of Finance)
  1. Warwick Finance and Econ
  1. LSE经济史。这里的问题是银行中没有人真正关心经济学的历史,他们关心您能够建立一个financial model,你只可以if you studied Finance (either as part of a Finance, Economics, or Management degree)

I'm by no means a recruiter but to me (sorry for being so direct, this is not me being rude but just honest) anLSEMSc Economic History would seem like you chose an easy way to getLSEon your CV.
