Accounting and Finance - LSE (or Warwick) Philosophy, Politics and Economics - LSE or Oxford Economics and Management - Oxford Statistics, Economics and Finance - UCL Actuarial Science - LSE
Which one of these would be the most beneficial (in terms of 'name') and actual course content to get an IB front office job; most preferably any asset management? Any tips/inputs appreciated? Thank you

Oxford > LSE > Warwick/UCL - Study whatever you enjoy
Ok thanks guys. So I get the feeling that the "head start" Oxbridge gets by its name/recognition/tradition is nearly equalled by LSE's geographical position (London, ie. the heart of the world of finance).
for ib lse is by far the best, not even close. this applies to anyone on here. extra currics are most essential.
That is probably because everyone (well most people) at LSE want to become bankers, people at UCL, Oxbridge, Imperial, Warwick, Durham etc. are more than happy to peruse their degrees or work in a different industry. LSE is essentially finance school and most programs are related to banking.
Either way LSE might edge out Oxbridge on this base.
I didnt say grades are going to make you stand out, though exceptional grades and university courses will (but im assuming they have alevels already). But the worse your grades are, the more you need to stand out elsewhere so
Also they were asking what will make them stand out to warwick and LSE. Simply put,grades will make you stand out then. when wanting to stand out for IB applications, then its a different matter
I didnt say for banking, I was just asking as a general question. Banking is one of my options and so I was just asking and that was implied when I said 'any uni'

Yeah, I should apologise! I'm sorry!
I didn't quite catch the 'any uni' part of your post.
In that case, what are your gcse/alevel grades so far. I could then perhaps better direct you as to how you could (or need to) make yourself stand out more elsewhere
