If so, was it helpful?
Would you join a full-time MFE program if already working in HFT as a trader but lack a quant background? I have experience at a couple of well known prop firms, but started my career at a "traditional" firm, then moved to a HFT one, where I slowly picked up programming (plus completed a part-time masters in CS). I obviously don't need it to break into the industry, but in a performance based industry, an MFE could be a great investment. Recent bonuses have been good by the standards of the younger crowd here, but do not match my current goals or even past achievements.
