很多时候申请难度之所以变大是因为在选择之初我们就进入了误区,比如有的学生和家长会因为价格问题而选择一般的小机构去做留学这件大事,殊不知留学这件事,如果你在一开始的时候选对了机构,能省钱的地方其实很多,但是若是用了不专业的机构,不仅全程自己需要操心,费神费力,最终还拿不到好的录取结果,打击申请人的信心,是赔了夫人又折兵啊,这正是应了“选择大于努力”这句话了。所以今天我们就来详细讲一下LSE这四个 金融相关的硕士项目,让大家清楚在专业选择时如何选到最适合自己的那个专业,从而提升拿到offer的几率!
先看看这录取率:
MSc Finance 招生比例:115/1580(7%)
MSc Finance an Economics 招生比例:60/840(7%)
MSc Finance an Private Equity 招生比例:46/824(5%)
MSc Risk & Finance 招生比例:49/995(5%)
背景要求
(这点很重要!!!)
MSc in Finance
不硬性要求申请者的本科必须是金融,或修过金融相关课程,但要求申请者必须要具备一定的数理能力。实际上,这个项目拒掉了很多高GPA或GMAT高分的学生,招收的学生有92%是商科和工科背景。
另外,项目与 MSc in Finance & Private Equity 项目的学习课程很相似,所以在申请时只能在两个项目中选择一个申请,并且要在PS中阐明选择项目的原因。
MSc in Finance & Economics
录取的学生中,经济学背景占了65%。项目需要很强的经济知识储备,比较偏好经济学、工程、物理、数学、金融等相关专业的申请者。
明确要求申请者在申请时,必须已经修了一个学期的线性代数、一年的经济课程,或者是拥有很强的数理背景。要求的本科课程包括:微观经济学,计量经济学,微积分和线性代数。
MSc Risk an Finance
项目没有要求申请者的专业背景,但是需要大量的数理统计背景知识,偏好对风险管理非常感兴趣的申请者。招收的背景比较多元,37%为经济学,21%为商科,18%为数学/统计。
MSc in Finance & Private Equity
2010年设立的新项目,跟MSc in Finance十分类似,只比后者多了一节专业论文课。由于该项目与MSc in Finance项目的学习课程很相似,所以只能申请这两个项目中的一个,而且必须阐明选择项目的原因。
该项目表示欢迎任何专业的申请者,但是也偏好数理能力好的申请者。从录取的情况来看,这个项目像 MSc in Finance,需要有很强的综合背景。
英国大部分的院校都非常看重专业背景是否符合要求,大家对号入座。此处心疼没啥数学统计课、经济学课的小伙伴们。
