Hi everyone, I am a grade 12 student So i want to get into investment banking or financial engineering and i have been admitted to the following universities to study undergrad in finance. Also i wanted to ask that shall I opt for data science as my second major or a minor as everything relies on data and penetration of internet is increasing day by day , will it help in investment banking?? The universities I have been admitted to are

  1. U of t
  2. Western ( ivey) 3 . Warwick
  3. Kcl
  4. Bristol

  6. Usyd

Also the job market for international students is not good in Uk and worse in Canada, shall i go to these countries???

Your post is hard to understand, and doesn’t entirely make sense given you can’t do major/minor at UK universities.

I can’t comment on the US, but KCL or maybe Warwick is clearly the most prestigious, so go for those in terms of UK.
