Getting into LSE Msc Finance with a 3.3 gpa and a 700 GMAT
Hello everyone,
I'll cut straight to the point. I earned my Bachelor's degree with a 3.3 GPA from Bocconi, and my GMAT score stands at 700.
I won't make excuses for my low GPA, even though I faced various challenges during my undergraduate years. However, I'm determined to put in the effort now and aim for an outstanding MSc.
In my senior year, I completed a 9-month internship at a boutique investment bank in Milan. I was offered a full-time position but chose to decline it in favor of pursuing further studies. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in a finance student association during my time at Bocconi. My deep interest in economics and finance truly blossomed during my last year. I believe in my abilities, and lately, I've started being brutally honest with myself.
I was admitted to ESCP MiM but decided to resign because it wasn't the right fit for me.
Given my circumstances, I have a few questions:
- Is it worth applying to LSE, or should I consider alternative MSc programs due to my low GPA?
- How can I strengthen my application and make up for my GPA shortfall?
- Are there other universities or programs you recommend I explore?
I appreciate any advice or insights you can provide. Furthermore, I wanted to mention that I've decided to take a gap year to apply to master's programs and gain valuable experience. During this year, I plan to undertake an internship in the field of investment banking to further enhance my qualifications.
Thx in advance
