You have a strong profile with solid experience at KPMG, a good GRE score, and international exposure. Your engineering background adds analytical depth, which can be valuable in finance roles.
ESSEC and Bocconi stand out for buy-side goals. Strengthen your application with leadership experiences or CFA progress.

Hey, thank you for your input!
I'm just curious if the admissions for international students are just as competitive as non-international admissions
do you by chance know about the job prospects of a non-EU member citizen? I am thinking of obtaining a b2 level french by the end of my masters

Hi cafepaingrille
Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, your GPA and GRE scores are decent. Your work experience in M&A is your strongest asset, and you need to highlight that effectively in your applications.

You will need to demonstrate strong quantitative skills to the adcoms. Think about emphasizing your international background and your experience working on M&A and valuation projects.

To further strengthen your candidacy.
1. Clearly articulate your long-term goals and how each program will help you achieve them.
2. Highlight relevant work experience and any quantitative skills gained.
3. Showcase your international background and its relevance to a global finance career.
4. Demonstrate your passion for finance and your understanding of the industry.
