Oxford, Investment banking and Law, is this too much?
Currently have an offer from Durham which I'm planning to firm (after being rejected by Cambridge) due to poorer performance at GCSE, albeit because of extenuating circumstances.
I'm predicted A*A*A* and plan on attempting to do three things. Applying for internships at investment banks, vacation schemes at law firms, and also apply for a masters at Oxford. I do not want to do them simultaneously (obviously) but Id be lucky to be accepted for any of these, so I wanted to give myself as many chances as possible.
Would it be a smart career move to do a masters at Oxford, providing I get accepted of course. Will banks and law firms value this degree much more than my undergrad from Durham? opinions will be greatly appreciated.
