MSF Program Rankings and GMAT Requirements for a student with 3.5 CGPA (Major: Economics)

Hello guys,

I have a CGPA of 3.5 from an American university with a major in Economics and have had decent internship experience in finance, including 2 at small PE firms. I am currently preparing to give my CFA level 1 in December 2019.

I am planning to apply for the MSF programs to institutions in the US. Vandy, UT, BC, UVA & CMC are the schools I am planning to apply to for the 2020 intake in the 2nd Round.

I am giving my GMAT in the 4th week of October and wanted to know what minimum GMAT score should I be aiming for in order to get into most of the above UNIs. Also, I am very keenly looking to get into Vandy, so any suggestions pertaining directly to that would be much appreciated.

I am also looking for a placement in an IBD or PE Analyst position post graduation. Thus, any MSF program recommendations other than the ones above would be much appreciated.

Also, could you please help me rate the MSF programs mentioned above?

P.S. I am an international Student.
