Hi guys, I'm new here. I registered for a few MFE online applications but I'm still worried about my Math background.
I major in Financial Economics and minor in Math.
Math courses I have taken: (all A)
Calculus l
Calculus ll
Multidimensional Calculus
Linear Algebra with Differential Equations
Linear Algebra
Financial Math(Black-Scholes etc.)
Stat courses:
Math Statistics
Probabilities (somewhat calculus based)
No quantitative projects (only project in finance was done in Matlab with assistance) , no programming experience and no math reference letters (all academic referees are finance/economics professors)
It looks like I meet the very basic math requirements of some schools (like Columbia MAFN, UCLA MFE) but as I looked on their website, it seems that almost all students admitted have double majors or have math/engineering/CS background.
That makes me worried.
My other background:
GPA 3.9
GMAT 730 (did not take GRE)
US top 40 university (one semester visit to Oxford)
One start-up investment management equity research internship in NYC and one commercial bank internship
Thank you guys!
