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!

Sales & Trading Career Roadmap (optional)

“John listened before giving advice. I told him I had accepted an offer at Bank of America but was still interested in JLL and Wellington. Instead of telling me what to do, he asked what I wanted from my career and helped me think about which path would give me more options. I also liked that he was honest about what he knew and didn’t know. He gave me a clear reason to keep working toward JLL, while reminding me that Bank of America was still a good place to start. When I practiced my interview answer, he told me what worked and gave me one simple way to improve it. That made the feedback easy to use. Most of all, John made me feel less stressed about figuring everything out right now. He offered to help with a mock interview too, which meant a lot to me. ”

Sales & Trading Mock Interview

“The mentor provided extremely detailed and thoughtful feedback throughout our session. What I appreciated most was that the advice was not generic. He took the time to understand my background, past experiences, and the specific roles I am currently recruiting for, and then tailored his suggestions accordingly. He also connected many of his recommendations to his own professional background and experiences, which made the feedback much more practical and credible. Instead of simply telling me what to change, he explained why certain answers or approaches would be more effective and how an interviewer might interpret them. He also shared specific examples from his own experience to illustrate his points. I came away from the session with a much clearer understanding of both my strengths and the areas I should improve, as well as several concrete ways to strengthen my interview preparation. Overall, the session was extremely helpful, personalized, and actionable, and I would definitely work with him again.”

Look at Washington University in St. Louis, I believe you have enough math for their MSF. Also try msfhq.com it has great information on various MSF programs.
