Wreck me, WSO - UK student, just finished 1st year at target uni, applying to IB spring weeks soon

Hi,

I've just finished my first year of university in the UK, and I'll be applying to spring insight programmes at banks in September/October.

Don't hold back.

Thanks

In my opinion it looks fine. It has white space and isn't really special but the experiences and stuff should come with time. Join a finance club this year though if you're serious about IB.

Also, is it not customary to put your GPA (or its equivalent) in London?

 

Thanks for the feedback, definitely gonna join the finance society this year. I'm not too sure about putting GPA equivalent, because spring weeks are only for 1st years (on a 3-year degree course) and 2nd years (on a 4-year degree course), so not many people will have done any proper assessed work yet
