Is Warwick a target uni?

So I finally got an offer for Warwick PPE and was wondering - before turning down Edinburgh and Bocconi - if it's a target uni for IB? Are there events on campus like investment banks visits etc?

Better than Warwick PPE ( both academically and career prospects )?

PPE is a more rewarding degree academically. however, if you know italian bocconi is a great option in terms of career prospects as well as academically. warwick for econ is better than bocconi though. for finance they could be at the same level . i had offers from both last year and chose bocconi

If you plan to apply for banks in the UK, Warwick is a much better option.
I met several people from Warwick in my BB assessment centres.

I currently study PPE at York and think it is a very rewarding degree and has opened my mind considerably. I can only highly recommend it. Of course, if you go to Warwick it might make sense to specialise in Economics.
