    Shared a couple of modules with these guys last year.

    I'd say go with the suit and tie, it's a big deal in fairness and it is probably the MSc in the KBS with most applicants year on year so competition will be strong.

    As for questions, take a look at the course outline and come up with something to talk about for each module. Intl Corporate Finance is an easy place to start. Throw out some facts about FX or arbitrage opportunities and you'll be well on your way.

    Finally, good luck :)

    I just got offered a place and was wondering can anyone give me some info on the year ahead in terms of work load etc. I am working in financial services at present and they have agreed to give me time off to do course. Would it be possible to continue working while trying to do study and attend lectures etc?

    Hi Whachattack,

    From talking to someone who did it last year it will be difficult to work and study unless you are very disciplined and organised. You may be able to do it during the 3 month dissertation.

    Congrats on the place and see you in a few weeks (doing the comp finance masters)
