LSE Msc Economic history vs Warwick Msc Finance and Economics

Hey guys,

I have received offers from LSE for Msc Economic history and also from Warwick for Finance and economics. I am currently leaning towards LSE as i constantly hear Uni rep>course. In addition, i also have an undergrad degree from a non target for Economics and Finance. Also, LSE's program is only £ 13k compared to £ 33.5K for Warwick. Money isn't a huge issue however i don't want to throw it away either. I am looking for any additional pointers you guys may have before i make my choice. Fields i wish to pursue are the advisory side of banks (M&A,DCM etc), consulting and big 4.

If you want to get into IBD I would say pick LSE, I have friends who go there, and their careers service is fantastic. You also get access to job postings that won't usually be advertised elsewhere( these firms favour LSE grads...hedge funds, P.E), and finally, the alumni network is vast and supportive.
