    Durham or UCL for Econ? HELP!
    Trying to decide between Durham and UCL for undergrad economics and I can't decide. From what I can tell both have pretty similar course and are held in similar regard. Want to head into finance after uni.

    Applying to Cambridge, LSE, St Andrews and Edinburgh, but need to choose my fifth. Any advice would be great!

    Are you trying to get a potential insurance or just another university?

    If you posted this in the economics section that will be the response you get anyday.

    Another choice. Cam and LSE are my aspirational choices, then St Andrews and UCL/Durham in the middle, and Edinburgh as a back up.
