Hi Friends,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I have been tracking the network for some time now. Finally joined today and making my maiden post.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I am a commerce graduate and MS Finance (distance learning). I have been working in primary data research on Variable Annuities for 4.5 years.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
As far as computer exposure goes - working experience in SQL and taking courses in C, C++. Looking for guidance in VB (Excel Macros) and pre-requisite mathematics exposure.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
GMAT 680 (Q 50/V31)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I am very serious about career in number crunching but not sure about Financial Engineering or Phd in quantitative/financial economics and side by side bit afraid of my profile if it is a disadvantage or not!!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Please help me out MFE vs Phd and how to get start as I want to get in latest by fall 2011.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Thanks.
