UCL vs Warwick for High finance and Quant

I have offers for both universities to read Maths. I'm stuck between then two and looking for any insights from people that have went to either or anyone with general information on recruiting for spring weeks / summer internships, and social life.

Hello, congratulations on your two offers. To put it bluntly, neither of those two universities, especially for maths, is particularly competitive. Your best bet to secure jobs in HF would be to take a gap year and reapply to Oxbridge, LSE, Imperial.
