Master in Finance/Economics and Social Sciences in Bocconi univeiisty

Hello, I'm a third-year Business Administration with a specialization in Finance from a top university in the Netherlands. In addition to the standard curriculum, I took a couple of electives in economics/econometrics (ultimately I have 42 ECTS). My GPA so far is 9/10 on the Dutch scale which corresponds to a 4.0 GPA or at least that's what I found on conversion tables on the internet. I have no additional internships/work experience. I'm aiming to go either for (quant) Finance or Economics Master.

Firstly what GRE score should I aim for/do I need to get in?

Is my lack of internships etc a big problem, will it hinder my application?

I saw that Bocconi is giving merit-based scholarships to "excellent" students, is there any chance to get a 30/50% tuition fee waiver, considering my profile? This is a deal breaker for me as I cannot afford to fully pay tuition fees.

If not Bocconi, what other masters should I consider?
