Please could someone give advice on what my chances are for Princeton’s MFin program?
I just graduated from LSE with a 2:1 in Bsc Economics (roughly equivalent to 3.6 GPA). I did very bad in first and second year, but extremely well in final year.
In first and second year my quant modules included a high mark in statistics but a very low mark in a maths and econometrics modules.
In final year, I got a very high mark in quantitative finance and actuarial science modules.
I also scored 770 in the GMAT (51 quant).
I also did a S&T summer internship at Goldman Sachs.
I’m very worried About 2 poor marks in first and second year in a maths module and econometrics module, even though my quantitative finance final year module was very high and my first year statistics module scored very High.
Do I have a chance at Princeton MFin.
Thanks!
James
Lower or upper second? Upper would be fine (it’s like a 3.5-3.7 GPA), but lower would be more problematic I imagine. But your GMAT is great and you have a quantitative major with some solid internship experience, so I think an upper second gives you a decent shot.
Thanks for the response. It’s an upper second, but All firsts in final year
