    So once you have your degree you think youll be going back home and not staying in the UK?
    haha yeah! as long as you enjoy it
    Yeah, but Glasgow Uni is in the nice part of Glasgow and looks like hogwarts xD
    I'd probably prefer Westend, but City Centre is more convenient! But i think i'd rather live somewhere 'nice'
    Not definitely, but if I want to I want to be able to do so. And I probably do postgrad afterwards Yeah, it does look pretty much like Hogwarts. I wish I would have at least applied to see what the outcome would have been! The Westend is very nice, been there a while ago and the Uni + Kelvingrove are impressive!! I wish you a nice time there

    Re: Business and Management applicants for 2012
    Did anyone else apply under the general code for Business N100 at Strathclyde?
    im beginning to panic a little, on the prospectus it says thats the code to apply for the ba honours degree, but on a website online it says it was just ordinary BA that lasted 3 years! EEP! Help? :L

    I'd say Hallam was the better university overall, but I'd go for Manchester Met for business. It seems a decent uni for business and they have recently had a brand new Business school built which looks kinda cool. Plus Manchester is a better city

    I would go for King's College, unless you get Warwick. Have a look at unistats.gov.uk - you can compare the courses and see which is best.

    ok mates, ive been following this and other threads about london colleges and I may be kinda confused right now.

    im from brazil and been applying to some business/marketing related masters but i got rejected from 2 or 3 by now. what may be going wrong?

    i dont actually know how the english grades work (A levels ucas etc...) so could anyone explain it to me. Here we just take a 0 - 10 mark and evaluate your final grade. i have a 8,33/10 mark overall...so is it bad? what would be the similar in english?

    i must remeber that i applied for UCL, imperial, Kings and mainly the first 2 had not any luck. i have a good PS (think so), important recommendations (academic - professional), a year of work experince, my grades, IELTS with 7,5...

    what might be the problem? my grades should be better there?


    i have this only KCL offer but it stills conditional since they require IELTS with 7 overal and 7 in each....i have 7,5 with 6...wouldnt they consider the case?
    im going to try until i pass but its expensive (US 250) and ive seen that my english would be enough for any other school....

    dont want to have just one option, even knowing its better than nothing....
    but dont know any other good london business schools?? where would you suggest?? been lookin around (henley, european business school) but nothing got really my attention...



    anyway thanks
    Hi there, I'm half Brazilian so I gotta try and help you aha..
    You've applied straight to a masters degree? Should you have applied for a BA/Bsc course? They aren't going to accept you for a masters degree unless you have graduated before, from Uni/College?
    Apart from those the best unis for Business in London are City University and LSE, if you want to try just outside London, Reading is good and a bit easier to get into.
    Hope I helped,
    Boa Sorte,
    George

    Hey guys I've gotten conditional offers from Saint Mary, Queen Mary, University of Hertfordshire, Kingston University and University of Westminster for Business and Management. Education wise and major wise, which university should I go to? Any advice will be helpful
