Hi guys I'm a third-year student who is set to graduate in July. I would like to know 1) How good my profile is and 2) How I could improve my profile.

Nationality: UK
Course: Mathematics with finance and econ
Grade: 67% so far, a high 2:1 (so a 3.7 GPA in US terms if what I'm reading is correct)
Relevant modules: Differential equations, Linear algebra, probability and statistics, corporate finance, thesis on Quantum mechanics and differential equations.
Work Exp: Internship doing internal auditing at an insurance firm, and then the typical part-time retail job

Target schools: Warwick, Oxford, Imperial, Baruch
 
I've made the attempt in the past to learn however I always get stuck after the initial stage. Do you have any good resources for studying programming?
Absolutely! I've originated this course exactly for you :)
best on planet + great TA support.

Cool, I go to UCL and have a couple friends who go to City. Are you gonna take a gap year and apply next year then?
Yes basically. I'm applying to some graduate roles currently and over the next year or two I'm going to work on projects to enhance my skillset so I become more competitive for masters applications.
 
If I were a student this course would be a priority. I'm a bit biased.
