<br />Hey DT,
hows it goin? wow ur at LSE that amazing! i got a conditional offer from them for a slightly easier program BMS (business mathematics and statistics) but living in london might be a bit too difficult for me.
DT, i had a question about summer vacation work, do students from places like warwick get internships or vacation work easily in places like banks or other financial institutions? cuz i was thinking that it was would be really cool to work during the summer rather than just laze about.
anywyas thanks again for everything,
regards,
Shuja.

I've been at the school for two years and enjoyed to the max. I had my last exam of second year today and feeling really good, not because I have done some remarkable stuff but that 2 years are gone!
Jokes aside, I think if you want flexibility, i.e. actuarial or banking or any thing related, then I would strongly recommend taking on BMS at LSE. It is very easy to switch to AS after first year and many people do that every year. My best friend in fact did this and it wasn't really a problem. If I were you I would forget going to Warwick or any other school in UK (including Cass) and would come to LSE.
Landing an internship isn't easy these days especially at permier organisations. On its own university, degree, results etc. wouldn't count for anything. You need to do alot of extra curricular stuffs to get anything near to i-banking stuff and to some extend to top actuarial firms.
I managed to do internships in all my summers so far but I know that for fact that it wasn't easy getting in. I had to do all sort of things.
Post specific questions you may have on BMS, LSE or anything relating to career stuff.
