24/M/US

GMAT score: 640(34V,44Q).
Undergrad GPA: 3.2, Finance, Univ of North Texas

Extracurricular: During school I was involved in the student investment group and Finance and Real Estate Clubs.

Work Experience: I have a Series 7 and 63 and work on a trading floor of a regional investment bank, but have no management experience and have not seen any movement in my position in the 2 years I have been there.

I am aiming for a state school, but I'm not sure if I'm a competitive candidate.

1. Texas A&M
2. Rice University
3. SMU

Will you please advise?

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your post. Could you please provide a few more details? Specifically why you want to get your MBA? Have you been involved in any activities outside of work since graduating from college?

Thanks,

Stacey

My finance major was enough to get me in the door but coming from a smaller school my mobility is limited. I want to continue my education but other than licensing requirements, my position does not provide any continued training.

My goal is to move from the trading floor into an analyst position on the banking side. This is originally where I wanted to be but I took the spot available at the time. My firm's public finance department is not big and I believe with a stronger academic background I would be able to progress further. The bank is a strong regional firm in the south and I am hoping that can provide a solid resume for local schools. I am open to alternative positions, specifically in any energy related firms but that is my current objective.

I have no extracurricular activities to note. I spend most of my free time playing sports unfortunately.
