Hi folks,
I was wondering what people in this forum might think about the following choice:
I've received an offer for a 1-year MPhil in Economics at Cambridge, but I've also received an offer for an accelerated 2-year graduate programme in a "Tier 3" bank (e.g. Nomura, HSBC, RBC, etc.) stationed in Asia.
A few things I'm concerned about:
1) I'm not too happy about burdening my parents with another year of studies
2) I'm not sure if this degree will really give me access to better career prospects
3) I'm slightly concerned about future career mobility by starting in a relatively remote office in Asia, from a non bulge bracket bank
I'd appreciate any kind of insight anyone might have on this or similar situations. Thank you very much.
