I’ve received offers from
1. UCL MSc in Management
2. MSc International Business from Cass (Bayes)

My career goal is to work for a top management consulting form post graduation. I am aware that both of the schools are not as well reputated as LBS, Imperial etc. in London but would you still consider them good enough Business schools? Is Cass (Bayes) considered a top business school?
Does either of the schools have a good enough reputation within consulting? I am aware that landing jobs at the top consulting firms are extremely competitive but I already have an internship at a very good consulting firm which I am hoping can help me reach my goal.
I am really torn between the two schools, I’m not from the UK so I am not really sure how the reputation of the schools are there.

Bayes is absolutely a peer to Imperial's business school. See: https://rankings.ft.com/rankings/2869/european-business-school-rankings-2021 UCL is far worse choice. Warwick and ESCP's London campus are also worth considering.

Thank you for your reply Duncan!
I have not been able to find much info regarding placements for Bayes graduates. Do you know if they are able to compete for positions at MBB consulting firms with graduates from the better business schools?

People from better schools do better, and I guess you know that :) If you can go to a better school, then do.

I think it's fair to say that Bayes is really for consulting roles in IT and finance rather than for strategy.
