Top 20 UK unis for getting an IB Job

How much value do you guys reckon getting a Masters in Economics from say UCL/LSE will add following graduating with econ from Notts with a 2:1/1?
I quite like the idea of having a masters, but would like it to also add something in line with the effort, and cost, to obtain one.
Cheers

Well, it'll pretty much have to be a top first from Notts, if you want it from LSE...

You talk like Notts is a below par university, it has one of the best Schools of Economics in this country.
I asked not how viable the option was but how much it would add. Also in term of getting into IB and how much they would rate it.

Thanks Alexey, just an option I was considering. I have started to really enjoy econ this year so I really wouldn't mind a further year of study with the added bonus of being a more attractive applicant to IB's/whereever I choose to work

and the point is? you saddo. you might as well just go and google me and find out my autobiography.

Don't be so short sighted as to believe the hype - LSE or not, it will be hard to get in, end of. You'd think the way some people talk on here, an LSE degree guarantees you the world - it doesn't. Neither does a degree from any other university. Plus, don't let your naviety distort your view, there are other measures of how good a university is at getting people into banking than just how many absolute numbers get in, if you fail to recognise that, I dare say you'll have trouble passing your numerical reasoning tests (though going on how some people on this forum have gained offers despite ridiculous use of logic, it shouldn't too hard on second thought... ).
And that is different from Cambridge or Oxford or Imperial or Loughborough because...?

Lol, I am not degrading your uni - they have kicked out a large number of applicants from Oxbridge Econ/PPE with 2:1s - and this current year there is noone on the Econ masters who does not have a 1st.

Oh, and in terms of adding - it will add you the extra year of knowledge, but no big deal - you will still have to start from the same place as anyone with a BSc/BA.

lol, I was just looking through the forum and found this thread at the top - assumed, naturally, that you would be behind it.

Why do you keep second-guessing yourself? I thought you made up your mind on the issue and were going with Cam.

i was reading some IB related thread from a few years ago, and yeah i have to say this forum has changed and not in a good way, it was once friendly and people seemed to enjoy helping eachother out. now its like wasy "my unis is better than yours blah blah blah"

Absolutely correct. I know tedious and repetitive questions are being put out, but some of the regular posters on the IB section, just come across as arrogant ******s. It's almost like they're putting people off from IB just so some competition will be reduced.

Current stats say that 20% of UK grads want to be bankers. That's around 460,000 students. I'm not sure how much effect anyone trying to put of people becoming bankers on 1 measly student forum could have on the competition as a whole...
