Hi,
I am serving officer in Indian navy and will be leaving the service in 2024 (total service 10years). I know some of you may think it’s a lot of time but I think research takes time and it is always better to plan ahead for transition into corporate world.
Post navy I want to break into asset management roles and I’m planning to go to a business school for a MBA.
I will be appearing for GMAT shortly and I expect above 700. Since I have time in my hand I plan to appear for CFA, atleast level II.
Also, finance is a big constraint for me so I have narrowed down to two B schools, namely JMSB and HEC Montreal. French is not an issue. Idea is to take up a job in Montreal after finishing school.
This is something I have planned and I’m working towards. Since I have no experience in corporate, I’m totally clueless about job market outside, more so in Canada.
I would like everyone to point out any apparent loopholes and remedial actions. Am I being to optimistic here? To break into a totally new field, is it necessary to go to a top school like rotman/mcgill? Does Montreal have opportunities like Toronto in asset management roles?
Sorry for the long post, eagerly awaiting comments.
Regards

Hi and welcome to GMAT Club!
Just a quick note that CFA does not help a whole lot in the whole MBA application process. It is potentially helpful after graduation and does show a strong level of commitment to the finance area/field but it does not really aid as much as a solid GMAT or GRE score. I would suggest to focus all of your attention on the test rather than splitting it between GMAT and CFA, though if you do it one after another, I think it is totally fine, though again, by the time you take the test, and get the results, you will probably already have applied....
As to your schools of choice - I think they work. Keep in mind that Canada is a fairly small market and jobs are tougher to come even when you graduate from Rotman. I think your service will give you some credibility and will help connect with other students who have served and who would be happy to refer you through the military club/etc.
Overall, I think you have solid chances (pending the GMAT score) to get through the admissions process. Ideally you would be able to lock in some scholarship money as well but it is tougher with Canadian business schools, often providing at most 50% as the highest level of scholarship assistance.

Hi BB
Thank you for getting back.
Yes, I’m planning for CFA after my Gmat, focusing on one at a time. I am not looking at CFA keeping admissions in mind but career in asset management.
I will be applying for fall 2024, so I have quite some time.
Again thanks a lot.
