Profile Evaluation | Master Programs

Hi all, I am looking to apply for Master in Finance or related programs in 2025. Please help look at my profile and kindly provide advice on which schools I can pursue and what to do to boost my profile. Thank you!

My profile:

BSc in Mathematics from Hong Kong Top 3 University. 

GPA 2.7/4.0, GMAT 710

Have 3 Investment/ Equity Research internships at local firms, 1 Marketing internship at FMCG international corporation.

Extracurricular Activities: Good NGO/ Volunteering Work, got award for 50+ hours of service. Also, work for a student-hold on campus software association as a Public Relations Manager.

Got the CFA ESG Investing Certificate.

 
With my profile (bad GPA especially), may I know if I can still target top business masters, e.g. MFin, MiM (finance track), Master in International Trade, and programs that are feeders for S&T, AM, Private Banking?

I still have half a year to prepare before the R1 application. What else I can do to boost my profile?

Thank you so much!
