Anyone here go to a T20 university genuinely

[kiyopon]

Maths and econ. Tbh the targets for IB in the UK are the same for compsci.

It’s mostly Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL, LSE and Warwick. Durham, Bristol and Bath are also good semis

econ and maths is fun i just think finance gets boring long run even ib id get sick of it

 

[MaestheticMaso]

yeah pretty much but mine is quite a lot better for CS than it is for IB.

yeah mines about around bristol level for kings, most of the people i know who are going for CS are trynna decide between this and bath/kings/bristol etc.

Are you trying to break into FAANG, or HFT?

I agree tbh, but the goal is to break into the Private equity, hedge fund, venture capital or private credit pipeline.

I’ve been looking at the insurance industry as well, especially actuaries. It’s also very good pay, but less headache than IB

Are you trying to break into FAANG, or HFT?

i highly doubt im smart enough for HFT.

yeah more like FAANG and finance (initially) goldman, jp, morgan stanley, bloomberg etc.

if i develop a soul then ill do computational biology or ML wbu IB im guessing?

Is it really that hard to break into HFT or a quant hedge fund ?

Yeah FAANG and finance pays really well too.

Yeah probably IB, asset management those sort of fields. Maybe actuarial insurance as well.
