Hi All,Can anybody throw some lights on the followings. 1. MSc - Investment Management - Cass Business School. 2. MSc - Finance - Cass3. MSc - International Securities - ICMA4. MiF - London Business School.Which one among them is better, in terms of job prospects. I live in Mumbai, India and having three years of experience in sales, especially in derivatives and Fixed income. I want to do my further studies, but getting confused!! I want to restrict my self in sales and product development only. Now having said that, do you think that those above mentioned course will be of any help? I'm pursuning my CFA now. Should I go for MBA with specialization in Finance? For that purpose, I've jotted down few colleges. They are as follows.1. MBA - Cass2. MBA - Warwick3. MBA - Lancaster.Which one of them is best, in terms of job prospect?* LBS I've left aside as I'm not too confident to get admission their in MBA.

You know what the problem with you is?The problem is that you are so much focussed on getting a job that you are loosing the bigger picture.Here is what i would suggest you do?- Figure our what you want to do in life?- Imagine where you want to be when you are 40- Then imagine where you want to be when the next Soccer World Cup happens in 2010. I used to do that, i always tool each Soccer World Cup as a milestone for me and i set some agendas for me. I still remember, where i wanted to be in 2002 when the last world cup happened- Now you have both the short term goals and long term goals figured out, then start thinking about means to achieve those ends.Once you know where to go, how to go will be easy and which school to go will be a piece of cake.

if u're keen on sales and prod devlp go for Mif LBS , With 3 yrs work exp you will find Cass MSc Fin and MSc IM to be repetitive to your knowledge and LBS is far better than ICMA with its name , on the other hand ICMA is truly securities focused. LBS will give you much more (good broad finance skills)LBS teach you the not so hard finance stuff (not quantitative at all) which you might need to become a good cross seller across asset classes plus you will build the soft skills you will need in your career my 2 cents

Devilish is right, all sorts of questions needed here.I'd add one, what are you really good at ?
