Management MSc - Batch of 2024
2.3
Avoid studying in high ranked universities in places like London
Tips: Avoid coming to the United Kingdom or London, there is a housing and eco-crisis going on currently, opportunities are very limited. Go to places like the Netherlands or Germany instead. There are hardly opportunities for everyone. There is no global exposure also, UK is filled with Indians.
Dislikes (Value for money): Definitely not a value for money, professors arena like the Indians ones, everything needs to be done on our own! Engagement opportunities are minimal, it's just restricted to two floors. Lack of practical exposure and you still get tested based on examinations.

Economics MSc - Batch of 2017
4.3
Excellent master's programme, with a strong quantitative bent.
Tips: The programme is very intense and students spend at least 60-70 hours per week on the programme. It is an excellent programme that will benefit students for many years to come. Obtaining a scholarship can greatly help in managing expenses. Nevertheless, I find such a programme a good investment as it will benefit students in diverse career trajectories throughout their careers.

UCL demands academic rigor, fosters global opportunities, diverse culture, with high London costs.
Tips: Before joining UCL, students should know that UCL demands high academic rigour, a global reputation, and a diverse, international community. Located in central London, living costs are high, and independent learning is key. UCL also offers many extracurricular and career opportunities frequently and I advise the students to participate in it and try to build connections as it will significantly help for professional growth. Overall, I am satisfied with the course, university and the country.
