LSE, due to their reputation, gets top-notch companies on campus from the Big fours to investment banking firms. Many students look for roles in consulting and banking. The jobs are more on the higher paying side. There are career events on campus during the beginning of the year and specific ones for your industries of choice. There is a very helpful team of career advisors available throughout the year via appointment basis and they share multiple resources as well.
LSE is renowned worldwide for their academic standards, nobel prize winning professors and holistic student life in one of the most hustling cities in the world. i also choose this course because it gave me the opportunity to choose from 300 different courses and meet people from around the globe. It was a program that I could do simultaneously as part of my undergrad so the timing was perfect too.

There are wonderful research opportunities and fellowships available. There is a Careers department that organised plenty of workshops and seminars.
Because of its ranking and reputation. More importantly the course is unique and something I was very interested in
Placement
Its all one can ask for with the best alumni networks and highest post study placement in UK.
LSE is world's no 1 University and it very difficult to get a place there. Its faculty is too good and the only reason I applied in first place
