I only know that UBS and RBS have a 300 and 320 points requirements respectively for all functions.

For the other banks e.g JP, GS, CS, DB and BarCap they don't mention ucas. Is okay to apply to the banks I mentioned for finance grad with my A-levels grades?

RBS got rid of their ucas point requirement this year, and aren't recruiting for traditional investment banking or trading btw

I would assume so yeah. And even if you don't meet them, may as well apply anyway.

Lol so basically you think you're 20-odd years old and think you're better than RBC? Get a grip mate. One piece of recurring advice I see given to summer analysts is to not be big headed as it won't get you anywhere.


thanks for the advice mate lol

its not that big headed to say they're not a priority when they make 10th on the list for all products and dont even make the top 10 for M&A, Equities or Bonds http://markets.ft.com/investmentBanking/tablesAndTrends.asp

Thanks for that info. What do u think about making a latex CV, does it have any advantages? My CV is in PDF format.

Right my CV is in PDF format.


Latex is nice because you can structure it fairly well, but it doesn't have any huge advantages.

When I put 2017 as my graduation year in Greenhill application, it asks what are your plans for 2017/18. Do you think it is reasonable to say I plan working? Other options are masters, travel and other without specifying.
