LSE or IDS for Development Studies?
Hello
I have acquired admission in both LSE and IDS for a Masters in Development Studies.
I am confused between the two, since IDS is an industry leader but LSE has a better international reputation and will be more beneficial for me if I plan a switch in my career at a later point, some people have pointed out.
Another factor is my lack of a background in economics. I have an almost negligent basis in economics, and I have heard that the Masters at LSE is econ-heavy. Will not having a base in economics work against me during my stay at LSE?
I would really appreciate some guidance.
