Student review [#9312] for Banking and Finance
at London School of Economics and Political Science - LSE

For students perceiving their Masters this university is a great option to those seeking extensive help and advice for employment on graduation. Firstly, the pre-sessionals lasting up to 3 weeks are almost fully dedicated to seeking career opportunities, building up communication and presentation skills and CV/CL writing. During the studies the Career Hub will provide guidance as well, accompanied by occasional meetings with external consultants. It is not a surprise that MSc programmes of the Finance Department became the Top-1 in the list of those which students are most likely to be employed by the investment bank.____However, I had to take 1 star out, as the studies themselves do not match the expectations. Despite the great programme flexibility, students with strong quantitative background are likely to end up choosing between subjects they already know or never studied at all.____All in all, my recommendation is to take up this programme if considered by a student in pursuit of any but academics career.
