Hi all,

I was wondering what if i'm accepted in Glasgow and Bath/Bristol. Do you think it would worth paying the fees to go to the English ones? I'm an Eu student so it's free in scotland. Thanks!!

On the other hand, £27000+ is alot to pay for when essentially it is the same thing. Do bear in mind that the Scottish system is different and more similar to the American one: if you want the flexibility of taking on other subjects which aren't related to econ. All of their courses are also 4 years rather than 3 so its an extra year.

Also as a general overall reputation, Edinburgh is ranked 20th in the world whereas Bath doesn't even make it into the world top 100... It is highly likely that employers in France won't even notice the difference.

I'm also going for Edinburgh and the point of studying abroad is not obviously to come back and work in France. Isn't the scottish 4 years for a MA? and English ones for for a BA/Bsc ?

Scottish MA = English BA

...obviously
