Bocconi BIEF vs HSG Econ vs Erasmus vs SSE
Pretty much what the title says. I am an IB student from Germany going into 12th grade and soon have to start applying. I am interested in Investment Banking and finance in general, and eventual PE, etc, most likely in Europe/London. Most likely cities like: London, Paris or Frankfurt.
I have a predicted 45/45, a 7/7 10th grade and 11th grade gpa, and a 1530 SAT, with solid ec's (starting an investment fund for 10k, econ world cup gold certificate, and some forage certificates). I take Maths AA HL, Econ HL and Physics HL.
- Between Bocconi, HSG, Erasmus and SSE, which is the best for placement into Frankfurt/London, which has the best culture, internship opportunities, exchange programs, rankings, difficulty, etc?. I am not an EU citizen right now, but might be by the time I apply, although it is doubtful, so costs might change as well.
- So far I have read that HSG is best for DACH, and Bocconi is best for London, but I have also read many negative reviews about Bocconi, saying it is too theoretical, and bad for international students. Is that true?
- is it possible to go straight to London IB after a bachelor's, or is a master's required as well?
- What are my chances of getting into the mentioned unis given my grades and SAT?
What do you guys recommend?
