Hi all -- just curious as to anyones inputs or thoughts on my profile
GPA (weak spot): 2.7 cumulative, 3.4 finance econ undergrad but 3.7 from NYU SCPS finance classes after taking 10 courses... will be explained in the optional
(fam issues/on my own since 17)
GMAT: 700 48Q 38V 6AWA, 82 83 92 split (80 80)
WE: 5 years on equity prop desk of a family office
ECs:R Re-launched a 'dead' mentoring program at my alma mater this past fall and graduated 23 mentor-mentee pairings (successful alums and undergrads), led tenants association which represented 150 lower class tenants in harlem against abusive apartment management company that was trying to force them out of rent stabilized housing and won repairs/damages for 300k total
I am looking to transition into more long term asset management from a trading role and looking at Chicago NYU Cornell Columbia and MIT and possibly CMU. most people i have talked to said that my gmat is fine despite being under the average due to the higher quant and 80 80 split, are there certain schools who feel more so about this than others? I think I read someone saying that MIT and Wharton are fans of he 80 80 split more so... any thoughts/opinions/advice?!
