Intended pace of program: Planning on finishing this program in a few months before applying to MFE programs.
 
Hello all!

Objective: get into the MFE program

Current Work: graduated from under in 2013, 4ish years of experience in credit risk
Intended Pace: don't know actually - so far I am still surprised that I can pass level 1 and level 2 hw in one month, guess that I will learn as hard/much as I can

I am located in NYC. If you are currently in the program and are interested in finding a studying mate, please feel to connect with me. My email address is wwang5186@gmail.com.
