Financial Management, 2023
OverallMSc Finance at LSE and the university it-self have satisfied wide range of my expectations, staring from actuality of given knowledge and ending with thorough student support in social, academic, and career spheres. LSE organised superb functioning of its supportive departments ready to assist students even before enrolment on campus, which, honestly speaking, allowed me not to get deferred to the next year cohort of applicants, thanks to visa-related obstacles.

The university has not deprived students of career prospects: LSE Career office interacts with students on a daily basis both online and offline even before start of academic year. Throughout education, everybody is reached by the staff to improve CVs, learn to write cover letters, and generally smartly position himself in front off employer. Career office provides LSE students self-sufficient digital infrastructure to read lectures on career topics, connect with the office staff, access various screening tests and questions. Describing all written above in one word, superb.
The rest success is only doable by students themselves.

I wish I had known...
I wish I'd done more due diligence into the British university system before going so that I fully understood the degre to which students must study independently. I expected something more along the lines of the US university system.

Try to live in High Holborn! It's a great hall! Or London House. But you need to get your application for London House in incredibly early (even before you gain admission to the LSE, if possible).

“Should the government help or not?”
Calan M
United Kingdom,
Economics, 2022
Overall
I loved studying Economics at LSE. I was able to develop an accumen for complex models and consisted of very mathematical fundamentals, i.e. regression analysis. The modules also provided a holistic view of things, and allowed us to form our own conclusions, i.e. should the government intervene in certain markets? There were also multiple societies on campus that gave the opportunity to dig deeper into your interests, i.e. LSE Baking Society, LSE Cricket & Football Society and the most applicable society.... LSE Business and Investment Group.

Careers
No LSE surprisingly did not support students that much when it came to career advice. The best advice I got was via networking and connecting with alumni.
