Hi everyone, I am looking for opinions/evaluation on my profile. I intend to apply for an MSc Finance (Hesitating with MSc Finance and Private Equity at LSE since I want to work in a VC firm in the long run).
Education: BSc in Economics and Management with a concentration in Finance (Electives) in a French public University. Expected graduation in May 2020. Grades: 15/20 so far (Equivalent to a 2:1 or 1st in the UK depending on universities). Quantitative grades (Maths, Statistics, Econometrics) around 17-18/20. Age: 23. Sex: Male.
Work Experience: Nothing relevant to the Finance Industry, no internships. I worked a lot as a Waiter to pay for my studies since I am 16 (Every summer and part-time during University). I am afraid my lack of internships/relevant work experience will be detrimental to my applications. ECs: Head of Partnerships division at my university's student life association. Managed to obtain several sponsorships for our events with renowned companies.
GMAT: Next Thursday (07 February). Expected 700+ (47-49 Quant; 37-40 Verbal). TOEFL: 110/120 (29 Reading - 27 Listening/Speaking/Writing).
Career goals - Long term: Work for a Venture Capital firm. Immediately after MFin: IB analyst.
Universities targeted: UK: Imperial - LSE MSc Finance (Or Private Equity?) - Cass Business School - Warwick. France/Italy/Spain: HEC - ESSEC - Bocconi - ESADE.
What are my chances based on my profile? Any advice is welcome.
Thank you!
