Hi Everyone,

I am an Indian undergraduate (top 3 IIT) and majored in Engineering Physics, currently working at a BB bank in the sell-side quant research division (located in research, not markets). I will have 2 years of work experience by the time I enter school. I am targeting Haas MFE/Sloan MFin.
I am considering applying this year and starting school next year.

-329 GRE (170Q/159V/5.0AWA)
-CFA Level 1
-8.6/10 undergrad GPA
-Was the student head of the career development office in final year
-2 internships (one involving swap pricing at a FinTech firm in 3rd year summers and another in consulting at big 4 in 2nd year summers)

Concerns:
-Have an 8/10 in almost all maths courses (Calc/LinAl/PDEs/complex analysis) and a 10/10 in numerical analysis
-Have a 7/10 in the first year programming course (but now code comfortably on the job)
-159V in GRE. Should I reappear to improve my verbal score?

Any help/suggestions would be really appreciated!
