From South Asia.
BSc(Hons) Accounting & Finance From my country's best business school.(AACSB Accredited)
CGPA: 3.34, SCGPA: 3.50
ECs: Have good experience in the uni's finance society where I was a member of the Executive Council.
Qualified and attended an international Financial Valuation Olympiad in Indonesia
GRE: 326 (166Q,160V)
Work Experience:
Internships in
External audit for KPMG,
Finance dept of Akzo Nobel
Supply at Uber
FT post undergrad(right now): Management Trainee--Corporate Banking (Relationship Manager) at my country's top bank.(started this June)
What I want in a master's program:
I'm not Heavy on quant so I DO NOT want a program such as MFE, QuantFin. (calculus is blekh, stats is nice tho)
Inclined towards something more on the lines of Corporate Finance or Something that combine Data & Finance or Markets Research(but I figure that needs quant too?).
Alternatively I'm considering switching to business analytics and looking at programs that start from a basic level and build up (as well as let you take electives which I can take finance oriented)
I'm confused and all over the place on this one.
Future career prospects:
Also: The only major goal post masters is finding employment whatsoever because I can't pay for the degree by coming back home after it. So any program I do has to be STEM and have a good value in the market so as to help me get a job (ofcourse the grind to get one is on me).
Sectors that interest me: consultancy, venture capital or FinTech Startups or last resort at an FMCG. (Absolute no to hardcore Banking)
Considering U.S and Canada both. budget is around $80k
looking to apply for Fall 2020 intake
Need a profile evaluation and recommendations on what should I masters in and from where?

Hey @tezos96,eYou have a pretty strong profile as such - GPA and work ex. are pretty strong, extra-curriculars look decent as well, but would need more details.
I would recommend a Masters in Finance only if you are super sure of working in the Finance in the long term - However if you want to keep your options open then you could opt for a Masters in Management with a Finance specialization.
I have created a robust algorithm that gives you school suggestions as per your profile and country preferences, I took the liberty of entering your details to find some school suggestions for your profile.
Here are some school suggestions as per your profile:
MS Finance
Dream - Michigan Ross
Competitive - Babson (STEM), University of Virginia (STEM), UT Dallas (STEM), Schulich
Safe - Simon Fraser
MS Analytics
Dream - NYU,UT Austin
Competitive - Duke, Texes A&M, Rotman, McGill
Safe - University of Texes
But again, as I mentioned I would need more profile details - I would need more profile details to make a more detailed analysis.
I would suggest you to take up a profile evaluation so that you can get more accurate school analysis - https://www.mim-essay.com/profile-evaluation?gmat-pe
Let me know if you need any more help
