Deffo LSE. Consulting firms are much more difficult to get into than IB.

Could you name some of the firms you're talking about?

Are we talking McKinsey, Bain and BCG, or does the above apply for Deloitte, PWC and Accenture etc as well

Do you know these partners from TSR?

I've been doing the LinkedIn searches too, yeah LSE is dominant, but I wonder how dominant, given that I'm sure Warwick would have less applicants.

I'm (genuinely) pretty undecided on the courses - they do both appeal to me! Does LSE offer better networking/internships (if you happen to know) :biggrin:
