Profile Evaluation MIT MFIN/ LSE MFIN (2019)

Hey there,

You have a very impressive profile, here are some pointers about the same:

You have a very strong background in finance (right from your academics to work ex to extra-curriculars). This will be a profile asset, so make sure that you highlight the same via your application.
Since schools look to include students of diverse nationalities, so your ethnicity can be a strength.
Your work-experience is extensive, so you will need to dig deeper into those experiences to present data-backed examples of your learnings and achievements.
Also, you have not mentioned details about the companies that you worked with - Having a brand in your resume (like the Big 4 companies) can definitely earn you brownie points.
Your electives don’t really differentiate your profile .I would suggest you to take up a CFA certification, it will definitely increase your selection chances.

As far as your target schools are concerned, both MIT and LSE are really competitive schools and are notorious for being extremely selective.

They attract thousands of applicants from across the globe (many with a far extensive experience in finance), so even with an impressive profile you will be starting at level ground with them.

Your essays will play an integral part in your application to highlight your interest in finance and differentiate your profile.

With a 325+ GRE and strong essays, MIT and LSE are achievable.
You can also check the lBS MFA program or Oxford’s MFE.

You might also want to check out EDHEC, Bocconi as your safety schools.
