Maths at Notts is fine. You won't need a masters if you do well and get involved at Nottingham. Plenty of Nottingham people around and in front office.

I may be able to change to Economics at nottingham, if i could would that put me at a better/worse chance? Iv got the qualifications for it etc. so if theres space i think id be allowed to change.

Thank you. Not even if I get a first with insight weeks/internship?
I'm not particularly interested in banking. I'm just interested to know whether a Law degree is relevant to a profession like this?

Technically, it shouldn't. But in practice I think it might. It's not like econ will teach you anything strictly related to the job, but Notts has more of a rep for econ, and at all ACs and internships I haven't seen a Notts student who was non-econ

It'll be hard getting those to begin with. By all means try, but don't get hopes up terribly. If you score those, you should be able to bag the grad job from inside.

As with any economics course, it depends on the options you choose. You could make it very quantitative if you wish (will work better for you since it's maths without proofs, so will be easy)

I just watched a documentary on when/why they went bankrupt too.
I just copy/pasted what was on another page.
Can you comment on the other banks?

And yet you still want to go and work for them. Nice.
Why did they go bankrupt in your opinion? Those courses are fine, but they can't sit interviews for you.
