Bocconi MAFINRISK
Hello, I need your opinion for a decision I'm currently facing: I'm a 3rd year bocconi undergraduate students. This summer I have a summer internship in the Risk Management of a BB in London lined up. Recently I've been selected for the Bocconi MAFINRISK, Specialized one year master in Quantitative Finance and Risk Management.
I've submitted the applications for Bocconi and two other schools, LSE and Imperial with 1st choice MS finance in both, and second choice MS in Finance and Risk and Financial Mathematics respectively, but I've no idea about the odds of getting in there, plus I was told that it takes more than one month for the admission committees to decide. My profile: 20 years old Italian Bocconi student with a summer internship in the Risk Management of a big Consulting Firm in Milan GPA 28/30 GMAT 730 Q49 V41
Bocconi requires me to pay 1k upfront to secure admission by the first week of April, but that's not the real issue. Since the Risk Management experience I did in my past summer internship wasn't actually Risk Management, rather it was being enslaved in front of a computer playing with numbers and stuff nobody wanted to explain to me, I couldn't understand whether RM is something I really like. I probably will during the next Summer Internship, but by then I'll have to have already decided regarding the Masters. I don't even know whether I'd prefer a job in a more FO role, such as trading or IB, and I feel that by doing MAFINRISK you kind of specialize for a MO/BO career in Risk, with the only suitable FO role being trading.
Given this undecision, should I try to enter into a more generic Finance Master? Like even the Bocconi 2 years ones and at the same time wait for the response from LSE and Imperial or go straight with this one? Plus, should I get selected by LSE or Imperial in Financial Mathematics or Finance and Risk, which is better, also compared to Bocconi MAFINRISK, in terms of teaching and links to BBs?
P.S. The BB I've secured the internship with is highly likely to hire you after 1-year from the summer internship if you do a MS.
Thank you guys in advance
