I Need Advice - Potential MSF?
Hi all,
I’m a rising junior at a non-target in the NJ/NY area, double majoring in finance and economics with a 3.75 GPA. Before attending my current university, I attended community college, where I had a 2.3 GPA my first year. It took me 3 years to graduate, due to going through a deep depression and losing myself. However, I got my shit together, got help, graduated with a 3.3 GPA, and received a full-ride scholarship to attend my current university. I recently got interested in pursuing a career in IB and have not started networking or going over technicals yet since I’m new to this. However, this past week, I purchased guides and have been doing Wall Street prep courses.
I am currently doing an internship at a search fund (my only internship experience so far). I am getting great experience in modeling, deal sourcing and will be getting more experience over time.
I know I am late for SA recruiting for 2022, but I wanted to ask what my options are? I am planning on cold emailing boutique banks in New York for a winter analyst role but I wanted to know when I should start doing that? I am also contemplating getting a MSF at a top school that places well in IB after graduating in December 2022 (I’ll be 24). Should I start studying for the GMAT now to get a score of a 700+?
I am looking forward to your responses. Thanks, guys!

I think an MSF would be a great option for your profile. Definitely reach out to the admissions committees of the schools you want to target (for IB I'd think Vandy, WUSTL, Nova, maybe UT) and do well on the GMAT and you should have a pretty decent shot at a good school.
