Educational Background

Have a also taken some AI/ML courses (average GPA 3.5/4)

Will join one of top Global Asset Managers (expecting to work some years) as Financial Engineer (Role will mostly involve modeling & portfolio optimization)
College Projects:
Have Self Projects on Deep Reinforcement Learning & Portfolio Optimization / Technical Trading
Am expecting to get 1 LOR from college prof under whose guidance I have complete these projects
Planned Courses:
Stochastic Calculus (need recommendation for courses)
Real Analysis (need recommendation for courses)
Advanced Linear Algebra/Numerical Analysis (need recommendation for courses)
Should I pursue a C++ course given that in my job I will mostly be using Python?
I am looking to enhance my profile for a Top-tier MFE (Top 10 in US and Top - 3 in UK) program after which I am looking to work for Hedge Funds as Quant Trader.
Thanks in advance for the feedback!
