Chance Me for Msc Finance Bocconi

What are my chances to get into Bocconi MSc Finance? I did an exchange where I got a 26/30 in Principles of Finance

My profile:

GPA: 3.7 as CS student, graduating December 2024. Internship as a Data Scientist Will probably work for 8 months after graduation date if I get accepted. I still did not take the GRE yet, but expected 165+ in quant, and 150+ in verbal.

I was also wondering whether it is worth applying through the exchange student selection track, or apply normally with the GRE.

Where are you based?Where are you planning on doing the internship?Is it a relevant field or not?

Regardless of all of this, to be sure to get in I would say you might need a 325/327 in the GRE, with like 168 or 169 in quant. Hope it helps.

I am thinking of applying through the exchange student selection track, which does not require GRE, but requires grades for the exchange semester. I did my exchange in Booconi. I am not in Italy, and I already did my internship as a Data Scientist in my home country. I am also thinking of applying in the first round, if that helps.

 

I can't really help you as I don't know this option that well, but if it is based on the marks you had while there I don't think you're going to go far with a 26/30, otherwise if it based on your overall profile it does look quite good, especially if you could land a relevant internship, be in one of the geographies they like and write a good statement.
Keep in mind that the easiest path is still taking the GRE and score 325+
