Suggest Postgraduate Programmes for London IB/Equity Research.

Hello, I'm an Indian economics undergrad graduating this summer from a top college. 

I currently hold a conditional offer for MSc Economic History at LSE. (Took GRE instead of GMAT and self-selected myself out of their MFin due to a general lack of confidence.)

Recently applied to the LBS MFA after the recruitment team said that I have a "great profile" after I submitted my CV for a review to the admissions team. 

Have also applied to the MSc Financial Economics at Warwick. 

Can someone suggest other programmes to apply to? Have considered Imperial MSc Finance & Accounting but they seem to take in candidates with loads of relevant experience which I do not have (My profile is 90% academics) and they don't offer a CV review like LBS

How does UCL MSc Finance hold up? 
Fingers crossed for LBS but would like to hear any suggestions for other programmes that would definitely trump my current LSE offer.

LBS > LSE > Warwick > UCL for for programmes you've applied too. Also, are you really selecting LBS (reputation aside) because of a CV review? Come on bro… Whilst LBS has a STELLAR careers department, a CV review should NOT be part of your considerations.

 

I think OP meant CV review as in checking the admissions stance towards his profile by submitting his CV to the admissions team to review, something that ICBS doesnt offer before admissions.

Oxford and Cam also offer some grad finance courses which you can check out.
