Setting myself up for IB
I’m a 15 year old, living in Scotland but with a US citizenship, and have a passionate interest in IB. I am picking my Highers (equivalent of A-Levels or APs) in about a week and was planning on taking maths, English, economics, computing and physics. Are these good choices for the industry? My goal (which I’m yet to find out if too ambitious) is to study finance at The London School of Economics, which I’m planning on using to get into a summer analyst position and eventually full time. Ideally I’d want to work in NYC or LA but London would also be great. Is there anything I’m doing wrong or, better question, anything I can do better to set myself up as well as possible to become an Investment Banker?
If you want to work in the US, go to university in the US.
If you want to work in London, go to uni in the UK.
If you want more optionality in where you can study, take further maths.
So it’s very difficult to switch between? Was planning on taking advanced higher maths, computing, and economics. Similar to furthers in England.
Yes it's difficult to recruit between countries. Especially anywhere -> US, even if you're a citizen.
If you want Econ at LSE you need further maths
Maths is probably my best subject luckily. Any opinions on Advanced Higher English?
