Hi,
I’m planning to apply for Oxford MFE for Fall ’19 (and other Financial engineering programs in the US) and would love to have your thoughts on my profile:

Profile:
Undergraduate: Mechanical Engineering from HKUST, Top 2 in Hong Kong.
GPA: 4.1 out of 4.3 (1st in Class, Academic Medal, Dean’s List in all Semesters. Full Tuition Fee Scholarship for undergraduate)
GMAT: 760 (Q50,V44)
Courses: Advance Mech. Engg courses (which I hope substitutes for Math requirements) Broad fundamental courses in Accounting, Finance, Project Management, Int’l Relations.

Work Experience: Working in Transaction Banking Graduate Program (2 years by Fall 2019) in a BB in Hong Kong. 6 months of International rotation in London.

Other than Oxford, I'm targeting US Financial Engineering/Finance programs, such as Baruch, Gatech etc. What are your thoughts on this?
My goal is to start with entry level Global Markets/Trading job somewhere in London/NYC/Chicago and possibly take more quantitative roles from there.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers
