In particular, I'm looking at a top 10 finance school (NYU, Booth, Wharton being ideal).
My profile:
Undergrad: Economics at UChicago
GPA: 3.4
SAT (does anyone put this?): 1470
GMAT: 720
Work experience: Currently 4 years at Bank of America, in the Secondary Marketing division of the the mortgage division. Area is responsible for hedging interest rate risk on BAC's $40 billion mortgage loan pipeline. Have developed high technical skills, deep knowledge of mortgage finance and the mortgage secondary/capital market. Had a direct analyst report for almost a year. I consider my experience unique for someone my age and pretty relevant, considering the impact of housing on the ecnomy in recent years.
Extracurriculars: My weakest area, in my opinion. Limited involvement with undergrad alumni club since graduation. Active in local sports leagues
Assuming I can put together a convincing essay and my recs are sufficiently positive, what is my shot @ my target schools above?
