Most helpful review

As an LSE student I’ll try to be completely unbiased. It’s one of the hardest no-nonsense Russell Group unis with a vibrant culture for people interested in learning, developing and making something out of themselves. If you’re doing a quantitative course like me you’ll be displeased with the people you meet but the opposite can be said if you’re in a more qualitative course. I guess LSE attracts smart people, and many smart people aren’t the most pleasant to hang out with. Careers Staff aren’t really concerned with you because they very much believe if you’re at LSE, you know what you want and it is a thing here with the plethora of career oriented societies you’ll here about. Many people hate the mindless hustle culture at LSE. I’m all in for the grind but the sheer number people who do it with the sole aim of becoming a corporate crony will leave you baffled. I was like that in my first year and realised, that you’ve got to think on what you want to do here before coming to LSE.

Well-known as a research university, it's an excellent place to study. Courses are framed in theoretical manner. Having said that, this makes a little challenging for students to apply what they have learned as the knowledge they have gained are so theoretical. I hope that there is a clear bridge between theories and practical applications as well. As a mid-career person, some of the core courses are irrelevant. I believe programme directors should take into consideration of that too, so that experienced students will be given more options to choose elective courses.
