                                    What Students Say:

   "I chose London Business School because I wanted the best. With its strong international element and subject expertise in everything from finance to not-for-profit, I also wanted somewhere that had strong connections to business and a balanced but competitive environment. The opportunities in London were fantastic.

"Selected as an Equity Analyst in the Defence sector by a major London firm, my summer internship enabled me to put in place the finance skills learned during the first year. I was actively involved in the Sailing and Soccer clubs, and was one of the founders of the Italian club. I travelled to Boston to participate in an E-Posium, and also went to Sydney to work on my second year project with Oracle Asia-Pacific. "
