Hi Matthew,
You have a solid foundation for investment management with a relevant academic background (finance + econ) and directly aligned work experience across trading and portfolio construction. This gives you credibility for your post-MBA goals. 3.56 GPA is solid.
GMAT - you should aim for a 695+ score to strengthen your application and stay competitive for top-tier programs.
Use your essays to highlight leadership, teamwork, and decision-making impact in your trading and portfolio roles.
