Investment Bank & MFin / Msc in Finance / M Financial Engineering?


I just graduated 1 year. Applied to UBS but failed after doing the numerical test.
I still would like to work in an investment bank, in equities or wealth management. I'm planning to take an Masters course to better my chances. I have a 2nd "A" Bachelors' degree in Arts (BA). May I ask:

1) Does MFin / Msc in Finance / M Financial Engineering require you to be very good at maths? (I'm analytical , but not that numerical)
2) Which of the three would you recommend for a person like me?
3) Which school for MFin / Msc in Finance / M Financial Engineering , is renowned and accepted by the i-banking industry?

thanks a lot.
