What a great thread. At the moment I'm moving through some ideas of where to study and this course is on my radar.

I'd like to pose to you guys the question of mathematical expectations for the course. How hard is the quantitative side? How was your mathematical aptitude tested in the interview? I suppose any kind of reference material or maths topics you covered would help me greatly.

Nice! I graduated this summer from a roughly 20th ranked uni in the UK with a first class BSc Economics. Taking a gap year before masters to gain some exp and save up a bit. Currently working as a financial analyst intern in Shanghai and have done another more academic-based internship as well.

What about you? Have you done much research on the course at all?

Hey there! I am considering an application for 2016 too in early jan. 1st class honours in management with two internships. One in an international social enterprise and another in a global sports mnc. Still hesitating since placement for graduates in MBB doesn't seem so promising.

Any graduates care to comment?
