Statistics at UCL and LSE?

Does anybody know anything about the department? I.e. how strong it is and its reputation etc.

I've found a link on the LSE (yup I regret not applying now) website regarding its own statistics course

http://www2.lse.ac.uk/intranet/CareersAndVacancies/graduateDestinations/graduateDestinationsA-Z/statistics/Home.aspx

and it states the average postgraduate salary for an LSE Stats grad is £42,773 (significantly higher than all of its other courses too)

Does the UCL MSc Statistics stand on similar ground with LSE, anyone know?

UCL has the stronger "statistics" department but LSE naturally has the greater number of specialists in mathematics and statistics related to finance so it depends on what you want.

Ah thats great to hear. I know LSE > UCL for finance related degrees, but I'll still be looking to specialise in Financial Mathematics within the UCL degree
