Could you update your profile to be more specific, on programming and the courses related to FE that you have taken? (for ex. PDE, any Finance, Econ, Numerical Anal., etc.)
 
I had a couple of courses on mine economics and numerical methods during college. we were taught c programming too. We had a couple of courses of computer application in mining too. Hope this helps
 
Ok I believe you need to expand your programming skills (general languages like C++, Python plus more specific languages like R) but other than that your profile looks good :) Also, try to study PDE / SDE classes (if you haven't already)

And if you have spare time, try to raise GRE V, but it isn't necessary :)
