    Nice to see someone explore alternative routes. I personally am on an apprenticeship scheme in the Big 4 after not wanting to go to uni.
    Ironically, we get a lot of uni grads joining the scheme, goes to show you can do both.

    Good video as always Afzal! For the next videos could you also talk more about areas within finance apart from IB or Consulting? I feel like there‘s plenty of resources on those areas but some other one like f.e. AM lack a bit considering information on career paths and different opportunities.

    would be great if you did a video on pivoting careers into finance in terms of those who have started a career in consulting/a ftse 100 grad scheme etc but not at a bank. how easy is it to convert an MBA after say a finance grad scheme at a non financial firm into a role within financial services? can it be done/is it easy?

    Hi Afzal, Have received an offer letter for Msc finance from Strathclyde, Edinburgh Durham, and Bristol University. Can you tell your order of preference based on the ground reality in the UK as I'm from India and have only a narrow perspective of these institutions such as their rankings.
