Admission has multiple dimensions. A first class honours dimension is trumped by better scores in other dimensions like:
1) An applicant with a 2.1 BSc plus an MSc
2) An applicant with a 2.1 BSc from a top 5 university in a quantitative subject plus good work experience in the the financial services industry.

And the year before? one year sample a trend doesn't make.

Have a look at the info!
Good luck to you all!

misbbe: Agree that you will need a distinction in your MSc if you only have a 2.1 in your BSc
Kill: In this environment there are candidates that were laid off after one year of work in an IB and don't have a first. Their experience give them an edge.

Jeez, any news, anyone?
I got a 3.85 / 4.00 from a U.S college ( SUNY Buffalo), and a 710 for GMAT with relevant IB internships.
I dont think i'm the only person who has to reply other schools and their earliest reply date at the end of March is cutting it close.
I applied in mid-late Jan and still looking at an 'applicant' status on Camsis (could be worse and be a 'declined')
How is everyone hanging in there? Where are alternate choices for you folks?

i've got inside news that LSE's waiting list for MSc Finance is over 100
I got rejected from Mphil Finance Cam and I have high hopes on my MSc Finance application at LSE. How do you know the waitlist is over 100 when the programme hasn't even closed for application yet? I mean the status is still "open"...
which is kind of unfair if you think about it.....no matter how good you are..how hard you have worked in your past three years.......you cant beat anybody with "work experience"......
its probably a good thing that cambridge does not allow people with more than one years of work experience into their MPhil course......
how can guys like us who are really good academically but with no work experience (not counting internships), compete with them????

Just read the calculation on the first page. Did/do you work at a rating agency?
