9a. Would you recommend Goldman Sachs to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

Very well structured programme with an industry leading firm and a degree issued by a decent university, studying is not distance learning, so you are not missing out on the "university experience". Excellent environment for fast growth and learning.
