Hi Everyone,

I am a MFE aspirant and planning to pursue one year MFE course next year.
I am looking for feedback for profile evaluation.
  • GRE:325 (q 169 V 154)
  • Education Background :IIT chemical engineering(Tier 1 College);Have studied PDE,ODE,numerical analysis,economics ,Business management during undergraduate.
  • GPA:3.1/4
  • Work Ex:Supply chain Operational Analyst:(2 Year).
  • I will give CFA level 1 Dec 2016 and FRM level 1 and 2 March 2017.
  • B tech and Master Thesis: Computational project on chemical Process. Got Distinction .
what are chances of getting into top 20 colleges?
 
Your GPA is low for top 20. You will be competing against those who have 3.7+, 3.8+.
 
"Planning to start CFA/FRM a year from now" isn't really a credential...
 
You have a good shot at top 8. Coming from IIT gives you enough leverage even though your GPA is alright. I would spin the work exp into something more techincal.
