M7 Chances?

Hello all,

I'm a college senior considering a 2+2 M7 program but also open to applying after my analyst stint. Looking for a profile review and any advice or constructive criticism is welcome and appreciated!

Academic Profile:
Semi-target in the northeast
Finance and economics major
3.6 GPA
730 GMAT

Professional Profile:
– Junior PE summer analyst at MF/UMM

– Sophomore IB summer analyst at BB (think CS/C/Barc)

– Returning to IB BB for full-time

– Externship at top macro hedge fund

ECs:

– President of Investment Group on campus

– Undergraduate economics researcher at Stanford think tank

Other:

– International experience abroad in UK (think Oxbridge/LSE)

– Diversity (if that matters)

Is my GPA too low? My dream is HBS, W, or CBS. Thanks in advance!
