Which EU MSF programs are realistic?
Hi all, I'm looking for a bit of direction as to which European (London and Continental) pre-experience Masters degrees I should apply to. Here is my background:
-3.3 GPA (school known for grade deflation, but still a fuck-up), have not yet taken GMAT. -Bilingual (fluent in English & another EU language) finance student at a top 30 worldwide uni with EU citizenship -Have completed 2 S&T internships, one at an unknown shop and the other at a fairly reputable shop (non-bank). -Have completed a PE internship at a small shop with a focus on a hot industry -Have strong extracurriculars/leadership experience focused on finance primarily -Have a strong story focused on markets, good interviewing skills, good recommendations -No need for financial aid.
So, which Masters should I consider? I know for a fact I want to go the macro S&T route upon graduation. I'd love to start out in S&T straight out of undergrad, but I think I've royally screwed myself w/ the GPA. Thanks :)
For S&T nothing is better than Imperial Finance MSc. Otherwise Bocconi has great quants tracks
..
Thanks for the insight. Any other schools in the UK and EU I should consider? Given my background, do I have a shot at LBS/LSE/HEC Paris?
depends on GMAT
LSE - For most of their postgrad programmes, it seems they want a 3.5/4 GPA, I'd ask and check to see if they'd still consider your application if the rest of your profile is good though. LBS also want a 3.5, so again, I'd check with them. Imperial want anything from a 3.25 to a 3.5 depending on what university you went to. Unsure of HEC Paris.
Bump-Would love some other insights!
