Hello,

Please review my background and evaluate my profile.

-I am a 29 year old male Asian
-Went to non nationally ranked (regional ranking around #30)undergrad with 2.71 GPA with Finance BA
-Played college golf on scholarship
-After college, worked as a financial adviser for 1.5 years then as Business Analyst for a family real estate management company for 2 years.
-Then I went on to work in operations (back office) for a regional bank for 3 years.
-Received CFA charter in 2013
-Currently at a small hedge fund in NYC doing front office research

I want to get an MBA because of my change in my career. I went from operations to front office role currently learning about equity and fixed income valuation and analysis. I would like to further my education and dig deeper about the subject and to hopefully really jump my career trajectory.

I know that I will have to score extremely well on my GMAT but not sure if this alone will be enough to cover my horrendous GPA and the school name.

Thank you in advance for your help and advice.
