Hi there
I was applying for LLM programs at UCL, KCL and LSE with specializations in Finance and Banking Law / Financial Regulation
Considering my career aspirations for the corporate finance business, which of those 3 universities would you regard as superior to the other ones (in terms of reputation, staff, facilities, ...)
Thanks for sharing your opinions!

Thinking about the pros and cons of both universities the following comes to my mind, please correct me if I am wrong:
UCL main pros:
- better reputation & better ranked
KCL main pros:
- better in terms of financial law
- new Law School building (Somerset House)
Do you guys agree? Thanks for your comments!

are there really no thoughts?
what do you think about the UCL campus, is the KCL one really that superior with its new Law School Building (Somerset House) and its location... !?

I'm have been asking myself that same question, plus LSE then..
From what I've heard:
King's College:
-traditionally very good reputation, but sliding down compared to UCL & LSE
-considered to be not extremely hard to get into
UCL:
-good rankings
- classes are (too) big
LSE:
-great reputation for banking & accounting
-not as outstanding for regular LLM's
->But what I care about a lot (if not most) is reputation by future employers.. Anybody any feedback?
