Chances for Mfin
Hey everyone,
I got a 685 on the GMAT Focus and am looking to apply to Oxford MFE, what are the chances of still getting it regardless of the lower than average score

Based on the most helpful WSO content, Oxford's MFE program is highly competitive, and your GMAT score of 685 might be a concern. The program typically expects a GMAT score above 720, as highlighted in discussions about its requirements. However, your strong academic performance (First Class with >80% and top of your class), CFA Level 1, and solid work experience in BB Investment Banking, MM Equity Research, and Big 4 Consulting are significant strengths that could help offset the GMAT score to some extent.
To improve your chances: 1. Consider retaking the GMAT to aim for a score above 720, as this aligns with the program's expectations. 2. Highlight your internships and achievements in your essays, showcasing how they align with the program's focus. 3. Leverage strong recommendation letters and a compelling personal statement to emphasize your fit for the program.
Your profile is strong overall, but boosting your GMAT score would make you a more competitive candidate for Oxford MFE.
