Program Chances

[Brad Warren]

Brand name is not a requirement to get into a top program. Quit thinking with the mindset that you are at a disadvantage! Continue to excel at your school, and learn as much as you can about the field. Try to figure out what it is you want to do, what are your strengths, and what are your weaknesses - and work on them! Build up your profile, show an interest and aptitude in quantitative finance, and you can stand out regardless of where you come from.

Thanks for the encouragement Brad!
