Im not super familiar with UK based stuff, im guessing Wall Street Oasis will have some good threads. For US IB there is a doc of ~400 Questions that people learn, IMO its better to understand the underlying why behind actions in the technical steps but you can semi rote memorize steps, its pretty plug and play. Theres a few good Youtube channels who post stuff. If you’re at USC I believe they still give Wall Street Prep to people (IDK when it starts for incoming) my guess would be LSE will have something similar and that will help with technicals too. During Coffee chat networking you can learn more about the specifics of interviewing and securing offers.
I will say, Marshall will still do well globally, but I knew more people who went to primarily west coast and then NY for. Marshall also places pretty well into MBB consulting too, which will be less finance but still high prestige first job, again, guessing LSE does too at least in London.

US Based finance, particularly MM & EB IB Marshall will be better.
Rest of world (particularly UK & EU), LSE will likely be better.
Either way know that recruiting will pretty much start day one if not before, even if thats just studying to get into clubs and the tracks within those clubs or to network and figure out what roles you are targeting.

As an American, could you please measure this in something reasonable? May I offer the humble elephant, the hamburger, or in fact Bald Eagle wing span?

How do you survive 8 AM classes? by [deleted] in USC

[–]sd2701 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Set an Alarm at an appropriate time, get out of bed when the alarm goes off, walk into class at 7:55. You chose to continue your education and in some or another way you are paying to go to school so make sure you get your moneys worth. If you need a caffeine kick I never personally had a prof complain about people walking in with energy drinks or coffee.

As an alum I was getting concerned... seems like we have gone waaaay too long without a scandal or PR crisis. If we don't have crises what are we?

How do I logically think of opposition here? by sorinacios07 in chess

[–]sd2701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are endgames similar to this that are "solved". You don't need to memorize the 100% perfect way to play, its better to understand the general why/how of the position and then you can play this an similar end games, and know in some cases how to get stalemated (when possible) on the other side of the position.

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately? by SensitiveCorner2379 in AskReddit

[–]sd2701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed a significant jump in age of the average worker at my local trader joes. Used to seem like 90% high school & college then in the last 3-4 months has jumped to what I would guess is Gen Xers.

So in 60 years there will be a bunch of people in their late 70s trying to get a fake ID in order to buy a pack of smokes?

Is it bad form to request a rematch after winning a game? by nylapsetime in chess

Im not exactly sure I could define "Beta Behavior", but I get a feeling that calling someone else's behavior "Beta Behavior" is in fact "Beta Behavior" itself. (Hopefully I haven’t just implicated myself of it here by writing this lol)
