Profile check for Princeton MFin

Hi all,

I'm planning to apply to the Princeton MFin program. Background: BTech in Engineering Physics with a GPA of 7.06/10 from one of the India's top 10 engineering university. Presently working as a quant in India's top HFT firm. My work here involves trading, building and coding strategies and doing research. I'll have work experience of around 1.5 years by the time of applying. I have also worked as a research consultant for WorldQuant and have interned at Ernst and Young in the Business Modeling and Valuation division. I have a research paper awaiting to be published in the area of copula and extreme value theory. Also, I'm learning Mandarin and will be done with HSK-3 by the time of applying. I'll give GRE in May. Apart from Princeton, I'm also aiming for UCB, Baruch and Columbia. What are the chances?

Thanks.
