Dicey. Very dicey. Better have a fallback position or Plan B. On the bright side any number of bum MFE programs will be happy to take your money.

Congrats! Makes me laugh to see this comment right below. I guess MSCF is a bum program... or perhaps take peoples' opinions with a grain of salt? Happy for you!
