Hey mm99,
On the surface, your profile seems to have some really good points. Starting off with your academics, being ranked number one in class shows your strong academic prowess and makes you stand out from the crowd. Moreover, considering your inclination towards the Mfin program, graduating with a degree in the same domain showcases your passions towards the field.
As for your GMAT, a score of 680 being competitive would open the doors for you to target most of the top business schools. Since you are applying for an MFin program, you also need to ensure that you have a 49+ in the quant section as it will highlight your excellent analytical aptitude. If not, a retake is what I would recommend.
Moving on, extracurricular activities are a way to showcase your proactive attitude and how you have emulated the theoretical knowledge you gained in classes and created a positive impact by utilizing them in real-life situations. Hence, the initiatives you have taken up should highlight your holistic development on all fronts. A major factor that is standing out in your profile is your role as the President of a finance related society. This goes on to vouch for your passion for the field of finance. Further, you can also take up some certifications related to finance like CFA and FRM. Admission committees usually appreciate volunteering activities as it showcases a streak of being socially responsible, a trait that well defines an impactful leader. You can thus be a part of some NGOs and can talk about the kind of events you organised there, duties you performed and most importantly highlight what were your major takeaways. All in all, varied skills can contribute towards you being a great future leader which would automatically impress the adcoms.
Now coming on to your work experience, there aren’t a lot of details here. But in the lieu of crafting a strong application, you must focus on the quality of your work experience. You haven’t mentioned the company name hence I can’t comment on the relevancy of their brand name. A big brand name certainly plays a part in bolstering your profile, as you’d be facing competition from applicants from big4 companies. But in case you don’t have such brand names in your profile, you can utilize your application to draw the focus on the quality of your work. Here, talking about the roles and positions you undertook, the teams and projects you led and the impact you created in those positions would help you establish yourself as a strong candidate.
Given your profile, here are few schools in UK that you can target according to your profile:
Imperial, LBS, Warwick, Cass, UCL, Kings.
To sum up, while you have a good profile, another important aspect you need to focus on is to complement your profile with an equally strong application. An application through its various components such as essays, LORs and SOPs would help you to highlight your strengths and give apt justifications for your weaknesses to smooth over any flaws in your profile. Moreover, the application acts as the window through which the admission committee can peer into your skills, calibre and your personality.
Lastly, since the major chances of your admission depend on the quality of your application, you might want to seek professional help to secure your spot in your target schools. That said, having helped over 2500+ applicants get into their dream schools, you can check out our, All-in-One Solution, to gain insights into how we can assist you in creating an application that could boost your chances of acceptance by a minimum of 3x!
