Erion - Princeton will be tough without at least a 50 in Q. Although you do seem to have an interesting profile and work experiences. I think also your references for Princeton will need to shine. I dont know much about Oxford and Cambridge though
Well, honestly, Princeton seems to be way to quant based, it is Financial Engineering, rather than finance. Thus, I think Oxford will be the best choice. Would appreciate, if someone could shed some light on the Finance masters in Oxbridge.
Regarding the recomendations: I have one from a VP in Merrill Lynch/Citigroup/UBS etc. (dont want to mention the exact bank). However, the academic recomendations are more difficult to get. In the UK the education is rather impersonal, hence I am not sure who will be the right person to approach. btw, what do u consider shining recomendations?
