Just wanted to get some insight on my chances on applying to any top 10 mfin/mfe program specifically Princeton or MIT.
Background and education
I’m an Australian in my final year studying eco/phys with strong skills in python and R. I have a pretty poor average mark of 72 but that’s partially explained by extenuating circumstances in my first 3 years and I’ve maintained an average of 85 throughout my final year.
As for work experience
1x Fang Product Internship (2nd year)
1x Commodity focussed front office internship at a large bank (Japanese/French type bank)
Graduate role in trading at energy company
As per research, I had a project with my national bank outside of my degree but no piblications
Solid extracurricular activities though and a GRE of 336 with 170 quant
My only concern is my mediocre gpa and it’s affect on my chances
