Student review [#28778] for Economics and Management
at University of Oxford

I was never particularly fond of Oxford. I applied because I wanted the Oxbridge prestige but the university was not at all what I had hoped for.

Regarding the teachers, it was noted that they had a high lack of ability to relate to the students. Office hours were useless. In relation to the students, there was a high level of unhealthy competition.

In terms of career, it certainly helped me to have studied here, but I don’t know if I wouldn’t have been happier at another university. I ended up going to do a Masters at London Business School where the environment was totally different. The idea of the importance of the network was very present and everyone tried to help each other.

Another important parameter is the absence of the placement year. Undoubtedly, the Oxford brand is very important, but without grades or professional experience to complement it, it is useless.

Thanks
