Age: 28
GMAT: 660/82% (Q48/82%, V32/64%) - AWA: 5.0
Education:
1) Graduate: MBA Finance from ICFAI Business School Hyderabad - mediocre B-School in India
GPA : 7.49/10
2) Undergraduate: Engineering from National Institute of Technology, Rourkela - One of the premier engineering schools in India.
Scored: 72% (not percentile), 2nd Position in the batch.
Work Ex:
(1) 2 years (after undergrad) as Assistant Manager Production with India's largest cement producer.
(2) More than two years (after MBA) as Research Analyst: commodities with India's largest propriety trading firm. The firm trades derivatives in commodities, interest rate products, stocks indices and currency that are traded at world's most active exchanges.
Goals:
To attend 1-2 yrs program in Financial Engg.
To extend my current exposure to more specialized field of quantitative finance and later to join a trading firm or a bank (trading desk) as a quantitative analyst.
Schools:
CARNEGIE MELLON : MATER IN CONPUTATIONAL FINANCE
Bendheim Center for Finance at Princeton University : Maters in Finance
BARUCH COLLEGE : MASTER PROMRAM IN FIN ENGG
HASS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS : MASTER OF FIN ENGG
COLLEGE OF BUSINESS AT ILLINOIS: Master of Science in Finance Program
RUTGERS BUSINESS SCHOOL : MATER OF QUANTITAVE FINANCE
I know that my GMAT score is not as high as it should be. But I also feel that a past experience in a trading firm and an Engg+MBA Finance background, can boost my chances in Financial Engineering course. I am also considering retaking GMAT, I can increase my quants score to 49-50.
What do you think are the chances of my admission? Could you suggest some schools considering my current score?
