Its a bit of a generic question really but what would you consider to be the best business/management course with the above grades?

thanks

Want to know exactly the same thing!!!

[orr]

same here, I've found that some uni's have upped their offeres from ABB last year to AAB this year, so annoying!

[gem89]

Aston has many business combined honours courses available at ABB-BBB I believe not sure if your looking for combinations though..

such as

Business/psychology
Business/public policy
Business/international relations
with others too

there is a compulsory placement year and they have an excellent record of graduate employment.

UCB in Birmingham is your best bet as the degree is issued by The University of Birmingham which is now part of The Russell Group of universities

interesting fact it is called the Russell Group because the people who formed the group finalised the agreement at the Russell Hotel in Russell Square in London

Because it's a known fact.

Isn't the overall performance of the Uni more important in terms of what people from the outside think rather than your actual subject area?

Aston Business School is prestigious.

Aston has the higher proportion of grads entering employment than Oxford and the highest outside of London what does that tell you about what outside people think of their grads.

The business school is huge myself and friends who have grad jobs were told at interviews when it comes to business employers think of Aston very highly

Ah okay At your interviews what other UNi's were thought of highly? Also, what others would you recommend for ABB - BBB?

If you go onto the times uni league tables then look at the tables for business studies then click on the employment column it will show you how good the unis are with regards to employment

[OldGeezer]

Was wondering if someone can help me.....

Due to poor grades (C, C, E), my late application and the fact that I have to stay at home, the only course I can really apply for is a Business Management foundation degree (which I've been accepted in).

Problem is I got an E at Business Studies at A level (C at AS, but an E overall).

Do I realistically have any chance to do well in this Business Management foundation degree course?

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like a silly question, but what are the 'graduate employment' section figures based on?
Surrey go on about how good their graduate employment is but from what the tables suggest it doesn't seem outstanding!
