Maths

Is Investment banking all about getting good grades in maths because am a C grade and I dont think they take people with C grades?
Good grades would certainly help, but I believe there are alternative courses you can do if you are not very good at maths, it's worth emailing companies asking what grades they look for. If you get a C in maths they may ask for you to complete an additional maths test to determine your levels, all depends on the company.

no i would say, maths is a large part of it but not the most important

i would say economics and sujects like those are probably valued slightly higher than maths

Have you got any companies in mind that I could email because I really don't know any, it would be really really helpful and thanks for that information as well.

Yes it involves numbers and calculations so maths is a strong subject but its not all, business or accounting would be relied upon as well
