The question is: who did you receive offers from? Out of the list you've stated (Edinburgh, Essex, and Royal Holloway), I'd say: Edinburgh >> Essex/Royal Holloway.

Do you know why CASS rejected you? Did they give a reason? Have you requested feedback?

I would say go with Edinburgh since they're an excellent university and will open a whole host of doors for you.

If I had to choose a top three out of your list, I'd say: Bristol; Bath; Edinburgh.

If it were me, I'd only consider those three universities, and in that order.

You may want to ask what is wrong with your current honours degree, as an honours degree - in the UK at least - is traditionally only three years.

The people I know who are studying Msc A+F at Warwick do not have Economics degrees. So yes you should. :biggrin:

Conversely the students doing Msc Economics do have Economics undergraduate degrees. So maybe that is the source of the confusion.

What about Strathclyde?

I noticed you applied to the same program I did there, and I am between Strathclyde, Bristol and Bath. Strathclyde seems to be very much respected and well ranked, but I think the others have a better reputation.

I am currently in the process of applying. I realised that this is an old post, but any feedback would be appreciated!
