HELP!! Advice LSE MSC STATS VS CASS MSC INVESTMENT management

Hi,

Can you guys give me some advice. I have offers for an;

MSc Statistics - LSE MSc Investment management - Cass

I just completed my undergraduate degree at Cass, and want to start my career in Asset Management/HF. Which course is better to get into that field, reputation (LSE) or relevancy (Cass).

-LSE is 10k cheaper, With a better school rep but

-The course content at Cass and quality of teaching way way more appealing.

Does the rep of the school matter when deciding, which one shall I pick.

Thanks

That's the problem, the only internship I have is working in a BB in IT. Is it worth doing a master's with limited experience.

Thanks so far xelink

 

LSE is definitely target. Cass is semi-target

A few people are telling me to pick the Investment Management course because i did my undergraduate degree in Actuarial Science. I want to give employers the impression i am more interested in finance instead of insurance.

Still got a few more weeks to think about it.

Thanks
