Excellent place to learn. Reputation is building up with the banks but still nowhere near the likes of LSE, Imperial and UCL.

its not as straightforward when analysing business schools attached to universities in the UK. city uni has a rather average reputation while imperial is top 5 if not top 3 in the UK. however, cass business school is far superior to tanaka which is where the respective courses will be taught...

yeah cqf is building up a rep gradually. 7 city are a really good outfit, do cfa classes as well and their pass rates are better than most others aparantly.

the 1000 applications a month rhetoric suggests Metraders.

how exactly is he going to hit 20 miles at the end of the 15th? after 15 days and nights he will have travelled 15 miles (+1 per day and night). hence on the 16th day he will travel another 5 and get to the destination and then just get off the boat making the total journey 16 days and 15 nights.

there are matchstick problems involving changing the number of squares and so on. other problems involving dots - one where you need to draw 4 lines i think through 9 dots - the key here is to think outside the box, literally. another one is reversing the following 'triangle' by moving 3 of...
