Masters in Finance - London, Dubai
I'm an final year undergrad student at a non target for economics in the UK, on track for a borderline first, or high 2:1.
I wanna get in the absolute best masters program I can get for finance. Think LBS MFA, LSE MSc Finance, Oxford/Saïd MFE, HEC Paris International Finance, or Cambridge.
I would love both good networking and a good pipeline into getting into high finance, with my current interests leaning towards Asset Management or Wealth Management. But I have had no real internships.
I'd like to know which is the most target uni i could go for that BBs recruit the most from with a good chance to get in despite the cohort size, that also has a good network/pipeline into either London, anywhere else in the UK or the gulf as I'd like to work there long term after a few more years in the UK.
I do not think I want to stay in London or UK very long term, but I want flexibility that no matter where I go (ideally Dubai, Doha, etc) I'll still have just as much of prestige and a benefit as in London from the masters.
Networking in London isn't what it used to be just so you know. HR has a really big say with acceptances and wants to ensure processes are fair. Name brand uni and academics help, but it won't save from bad test scores and HVs - thats what you need to to perfect before you get to talk to a human being at a bank
None of those are possible unfortunately. MiM at LBS and LSE is easy to get in. However since you have 0 internships I'd recommend a 2 year one (hec, Bocconi, escp or similar). You do a gap year, do off cycles and a summer ideally and your profile is 100 times better than before you entered the program.
putting escp in the lot is nuts, makes me feel like you are an escp alum because it does NOT have it's place among those
Completely missed the point, buddy. There are only a handful of MiM programs that are two years long and allow you to take a gap year for building experience. Actually even bocconi isn't one of them, I'd mentioned it originally. ESCP is one of them and consistently ranks highly across major MiM rankings. But you seem more interested in pushing your own prestige hierarchy than addressing my actual point.
