Birmingham, CASS, Bristol? Best University for IB, finance, investement?

I have talked to couple of people who did Acc & Finance Masters last year, and they hated the accounting part and found it hard, specially managerial and cost accounting. Being brave, i borrowed a book on cost accounting from my uncle who is a chartered accountant. After reading couple of pages, i gave it back. Corporate accounting and financial analysis is more interesting though and highly relevant to finance (if u intend to for example get into corporate finance, M&A, Equity and Dept capital markets).

Thanks for your response Mussy.
I take it you find accounting boring?

Do you know if corporate accounting and financial analysis are usually part of an AccFin degree? I can't seen to find those tho areas in any degree outline.

My goal is to get into corporate finance, M&A, Equity and DCM so i guess it would be useful with some accounting too.
I just don't enjoy it

Well i particularly dont like cost accounting, but tbh i havent had that much exposure to accounting in general. By looking at the LSE Acc&Finance Bsc, it looks like you do get an opportunity to get into financial accounting and analysis, which is pretty much relevant to corporate finance. But yeah, its pretty helpful to have 'some' interest in accounting, particularly financial accounting as the numbers from a company's balance sheet, cashflow and earnings feed into Excel when you are trying to do merger modelling, discounted cashflow and all that sort of stuff. A good corporate finance book should provide you exposure to financial accounting that is relevant to M&A, DCM and ECM.
