I took the GMAT 2 times 700 (Q49 V35) and 720 (Q47 V42) with my Quant score from the 1st GMAT and my Verbal score from the 2nd, that gives me a score of 740, I don't know if the admissions committee will take it into account...

I worked at L'Oréal for about 3 years as a marketing manager.
I chose USC as my safety school, then for Yale and Berkeley I don't know if my GMAT score is high enough, I put them in because the "What are my chances" tool told me I was above average for both.

Would suggest a score of 720+ for the MFE at Haas since its probably one of the most competitive MFEs. 700 maybe a borderline score although in your case with a strong undergrad GPA it should be okay. Also, just want to highlight that MFE is not best the route for a career in Investment Banking, an MBA will be a better option since all the top tier banks in the US recruit from the MBA pool. MFEs tend to place will in Quant, Portfolio Management and Risk related roles in PE/HF/MF - so please try to establish a fit with your career goals. Also, make sure that you meet their requirement criteria from a quantitative coursework perspective.

You may be able to get away with a slightly lower GRE score. I would check the average for both if you have access to it… sorry, not a masters guy here 😇
