LSE courses

Hi WSO,

I'm finishing up my freshman year at a semi-target. I couldn't get any internships this summer, so I will be studying at the London School of Economics. Given my limited business experience, there are limited classes that I'm eligible to take. I've essentially narrowed it down to Introductory Microeconomics; analysis and management of financial risk; and fixed income securities, debt markets and the macro economy. All of these classes sound interesting, however I feel like the latter 2 wouldn't be very relevant to I-banking. On the other hand, I feel like introductory micro would be kind of stupid to take since I can take it at my university. What are your thoughts?
