Hello,

I just finished finished my bachelor in business engineering (speciality: finance) with a score of 13/20 (not so good..) at the solvay business school (Brussels).
What or the choices i have to make in order to optimize my cv to get in a top MASTER IN FINANCE program. Obviously i have to get a good a good gmat (objective 720) an stuff,...
But what really interests me, is which master i should pick after my bachelor! I could just complete the 2year master in business engineering or could do the english equivalent master in business & technology https://www.solvay.edu/EN/Programmes/Mas ... index.php., or i could go some where else (because i didnt see that much mathemactics,.... not like civil engineers but much mùore than teh average econmics student (had math 1, math 2, stat1, stats2, chemistry, physics,electricity, operations research, finance & economic courses) .... but i dont know where ( not afraid of foreign experiences)... but is there still time left to fulfill my aplication.

-I'm also thinking about taking the cfa tests, would this spice my profile up?
-I'm also becoming president of fraternity that covers the East-Flemish region, consiting out of 60 persons.(not possible when i go study abroad ofcourse)
Also thinking about starting an investment club with friends with different backgrounds (law, economics and stuff)

What do you guys think about those prospects? Would this put significant weight to my profile? Are there important things that im forgetting? Other suggestions?

In short: Should i do the CFA, start the investment club and what master should i choose?
And would this be enough to get in top master in finance afterwards?

Big thx

Arnaud

Do the CFA only if you plan to pursue a career in investment management and (maybe) trading. It's completely worthless for investment banking or pretty much any other career besides investment management and certain areas of trading. So decide in advance if you want to spend 3 years on a test, if you don't plan on doing that career.

As for what masters you should do, figure out what career path you want.

My goal is to get in a good master in finance program, I idd know that the cfa only covers a small area of jobs in finance. But my main objective for doing the cfa is to gain weight in my application!
I just want to do the cfa because i have the feeling i have to spice up my profile regardless teh small range of job opportunities that it covers! no?

It doesn't work like that. The admissions committee will look at that CFA and ask themselves, is this guy planning on working in investment management? If your essays and career goals say that you won't, then the CFA won't benefit you.


If you're just doing this to show them that you can handle a "hard test", then don't bother. You can't just throw random tests on an application to spice it up. It won't.


Honestly, if you're not going to use the CFA, then don't waste your time. It will take you approximately 3 years to pass all three levels and it's not the best use of your time.
