AWA - 1.5

My major work is credit risk, interest rate modeling using stochastic calculus, Asset liability management, liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

Could anyone help me understand my position in getting into elite colleges like Baruch, Berkeley, Columbia etc., If not elite colleges, which other schools should I look at?

Hi, I think your AW score is way too low.. Please make it to something like at least 3.0+

If i were you I would also look into Georgia tech as it is a great school and the average gpa is not to high.
