Sudeo Masters in Financial Engineering for Trading

Ok,

Just took GMAT yesterday and got a 690 (47Q, 39V). I also have a 3.65 GPA at The University of Tennessee where I am finishing up my Undergraduate in Finance. I am also taking many quantitative classes including, Calulus I, II, III, Differential Equations, Econometrics, Intro to Programming, Intro Statistics. I also currently intern at Merrill Lynch.

I am trying to get into any MSF or MSFE program that I can that has good placement in trading. So far the best schools I can come up with that I could be competitive at and place well in trading are Tulane, Kent St., IIT - Chicago, and Cass - London.

I don't really have the qualities many MFE programs want (I am not an engineer or mathematician) . But I don't really care I just want a job in trading!

Any suggestions on other schools that I may be able to break into with good trading placement?

Thanks Forum!
