I am from El Salvador. I am applying to MFE programs in the Fall for the class 2022. GPA 3.87/4.00GRE 168Q/161V (Taken 1 time)Most of my work experience is machine learning research with some small publications. I am also going to be a quant in a MBA class offered in the BYU Business School managing $3.5M.My goal programs are : CMU MFE, NYU MFE, Cornell MFE, Berkeley Haas MFEMore realistic ones: Urbana-Champaign, Georgia TechWould you guys say that my expectations are realistic? Any advice on how can I make myself a more attractive candidate for the universities? Would there be a benefit in taking the GRE again? I am pretty sure I can raise my score, but I do not know if that is the best use of my time.I appreciate any advice, and if this is not the right place to post this, let me know!</blockquote>
