I want to apply for the MFE program at UCLA, Columbia, Baruch etc. and I NEED an assessment of my profile. Please share your opinion and any suggestions are welcomed.
Background -
1. Cleared both levels of Financial Risk Management (FRM) certification from GARP.
2. Have done my Bachelors in Business Administration with a Major in Finance and Minor in Economics (Relevant Coursework for MFE include - Calculus, Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory, Econometrics and Various other Finance Courses)
However my weak point is my undergraduate GPA- 6.67/10
I have always been top of my class, I actually received a merit scholarship for my degree as well, but was focused more on internships and certifications.
3. In a course of three years, I have completed 5 internships (1 at a Fintech startup, 1 at a wealth management firm, 1 at an international consulting firm in finance, 1 at a stock brokerage firm, and 1 in research services)
4. I am currently preparing for GRE and according to mock tests expect a score of around Q168, V165
5. I am also taking certificate courses from Coursera in C++ , VBA and Python
Please share your thoughts!!!
Thanks
