Hi! I start an MSc in Quant Finance at the University of Manchester next month. I am an Aero/Astro & Spacecraft graduate (from Southampton, the UK#2 in Aero and arguably UK#1 in Astro/Spacecraft).
As I did not have thorough statistics in my undergraduate, I did not have the background for pure mathematical finance. Additionally, other Quant courses were simply too expensive.
My question is how is Manchester viewed within the industry, and how can I help turn the tables in my favour if Manchester is a 2nd tier course.
My aim is to reach a Quant Analyst role (I am not interested in the solely research roles).
