Warwick, I've heard.
University of Vienna, but again find out what you need and acquire them and make yourself the target. Not everybody on Wallstreet is from prestigous schools. It's like if we think we dont get into a "prestigous" school we can't be accepted in I-Banks. Dude!!! it's totally wrong passion produces fruit. Not knocking the idea to stop trying to get in a target school do it with passion to get in there. Just remember if a scenario comes up where your not accepted...duh your still going to go get your graduate degree. right? of course you will because deep down inside no one stops you, but you!!! geeeez did anyone watch the Pursuit of happiness here?
this is what i think the best guide of what universities IB's look at in the UK.

UCL is also a target.
fp, are you a UCL bird?
Nope :)
Shame... I have a thing for UCL birds...
not all of them, just the polished ones... Not oxbridge snobby and eccentric, but not too dim either... Just right.
Hahaha...true. And having to cross London to get to lectures makes female students generally better dressed. You get a significant number of Oxbridge chicks riding bikes or walking to tutorials wearing stained pajamas.
Oxbridge LSE for not-math heavy Imperial for math heavy
huge drop
UCL and Warwick.
Is that a joke? Warwick's recruitment programme is phenomenal (as are its placements). Same for UCL. I would put both far ahead of imperial.
The reason why I even included Warwick and UCL on the list is because I know their recruitment programs are relatively great. But compared to Oxbridge, LSE, and Imperial, still a huge drop.
Btw, we are talking international, or are we talking local jobs?
Oxbridge, LSE, UCL, Imperial are targets for London IB
