Help from insiders: GPA and MSc choice

Hi there,

I am an MSc student from top target European uni. My goal is to break into S&T in London.

There is the chance I'll graduate below 2:1, and that's a shame given my previous brilliant academic results. I fear this will hurt my career in the short to medium term. So I thought about dropping from uni in case I found a decent job now, and then start a master's elsewhere. 

What do you think about it?

Thanks a lot

 

If you’ve paid university fees, I don’t quite understand what you have to lose here. Maybe apply for another masters immediately after completing this?
