SSE MFin placement

I've been considering going to SSE to do my master's there in order to get a IB job in London. Provided I get accepted, I plan on doing a summer internship before my second year.

Two questions: a) Where would a SSE MFin graduate place realistically? From reading past threads, I have gathered that as long as your grades are okay, you should have no problems getting a job at a BB. My question is would you expect to get a job as an associate or an analyst?

b) If you go to SSE, you can take the CEMS MiM program. Does this have any value for IB and if so, is it worth the extra time invested (one year)?

I speak basic Swedish, after half a year of living there I should have conversational proficiency so language is not an issue. I do expect to work in a "normal" division afterwards though, not a Nordic desk.

I study in Germany and I can confirm that SSE is well known in Europe. I know that you want to work in London. I think that it doesn´t matter where you exactly studied. I know lots of people from Germany who work in London as Investment bankers, but they visitied schools which were/are still ranked on last places in Germany.

Don´t hesitate going to SSE, because this school is well renowned and there is a strong career center.

P.S. Swedish girls are hot and beautiful.. You will not regret.
