UCLA or UCL or McGill or Warwick or King's...

<p>LOL! Guys, he/she decided ages ago. Give it a rest. It's because WSSR777 replied the topic after 4 months of its being inactive xD</p>

<p>So what did you choose in the end?</p>

<p>And BTW Juliashark, he/she didn't have to think about acceptance rates because he said he was already accepted there.</p>

<p>o ok ^^</p>

<p>jiceo1: i got it from Princeton Review
its a known fact that the UCs arent very accepting of international, hell even out-of-state have a tough time getting in</p>

<p>and yet if you watch one of their videos on the youtube account of their classes, it's really easy stuff and either the kids there are not very smart or just bored (lack of knowlege/discussion)</p>

<p>UCL's econ is strong!, i was accepted to econ and stats, but i didnt go
i went to UCLA as an exchange student and i loved it!
now im going to attend USC
i'd say , choose from UCL and UCLA</p>

<p>UCLA is not a fit for Ibanking.</p>

<p>Juliushark: Wow, I didn't know that, this is such an ego booster lol. I kind of regret not applying to other colleges that actually give aid for internationals.</p>

<p>Sleepykitten: What's your major at USC? If you loved UCLA why aren't you attending it?</p>

<p>what the hell man…warwick, ucl and kings for sure. unless you’re the accelerated cali type who got into UCLA econs ED, only needing to pay half the tuition.</p>

<p>err as for IBanking, it would more along the lines of LSE, UPenn, Columbia, NYU, UC Berkeley. But look just graduate with solid gpa…if you’re bright and dedicated you’d end up in I Banking for sure.</p>

<p>if i were you, i would choose among ucl, ucla and king’s :)</p>

<p>I wonder what the OP chose… they’d have been mad to choose Warwick or Kings over UCL.</p>

<p>if you have any questions about university of warwick economics i am a 3rd year economics student at warwick.</p>

<p>I have received offers from the following unis</p>

<p>1)UCL
2)Warwick
3)UBC (canada)
4)McGill
5)U of T</p>

<p>i intent to study economics and i would like to study at the uni which offers the best undergrad program for economics. Is there any significant difference in their standards?
Let me know what you think :)</p>

<p>No, they are all solid schools. For Econ, I would probably make the list them as follows- </p>

<p>1)Warwick, 2)U of T, 3)UCL, 4)McGill, 5)UBC. </p>

<p>I am a student at LSE and went to McGill undergrad, so I have some idea about these things, but that list is in no way authoritative</p>

Hi.

I am deciding between UofT (Transfer into 2nd year) and University of Warwick (Politics and Sociology) where i will start from the beginning. I plan on doing my masters/doctorate from the UK. For now i will be studying politics in both unis. In terms of university experience, university reputation and the chances of getting into a masters program in the UK how would you rank them?

Thank you!

start your own thread @mish94, this one is several years old.

I found the thread I started almost nine years ago and realized I didn’t give a response.

So here it is:

I ended up going to UCLA and I work in investment banking now, as promised.

Note it wasn’t an easy route for various reasons as Cali is not great for finance to begin with but I think UCLA still carries a strong rep globally.

Investment banking has become a lot easier to break into than when I posted this thing so frankly I think any college would have worked.

UCL prob would have been easier for breaking into finance in EMEA or Asia.
