Hi,
I have been accepted in two masters that are in the top ten business schools in Europe. One is a master that is a Master in Management that is relatively easy going (ESCP) and the other one is a hardcore master in Finance which is super competitive and hard (Bocconi).
All my friends that work in Investment Banking told me that I should go for the easy one and use my spare time to network like crazy to get the best possible job when I graduate, instead of spending all my time working on theoretical finance which will leave me no time to network.
Are they right?
