PLEASE EVALUATE MY PROFILE FOR OXFORD MFE

I am really new to the world of finance, didn’t start exploring it as a career till very recently.

I did my undergraduate in International Relations graduated with a high 2.1. Had started masters at LSE, but had to stop because of personal reasons. In sort of a limbo as didn’t have maths in grade 12th (A-levels), was preparing for medical schools (doctor parents/ South-Asian kid lol). But anyway I discovered in my undergraduate that I really liked economics but because I didn’t have quantitative skills, pursuing a pure economics program would be hard.  

As I couldn’t complete my masters at LSE, I have enrolled myself at the University of London’s International Program for BSc. Economics, and I am doing fairly well. I have been also working with a boutique investment bank for 6 months now. I have also given the GMAT and I have scored 740, I am anyway thinking of giving again with better preparation. 

I am looking for any advice that will help my admission (thinking of applying next year), and I will be grateful for that.
