Hi, I would like some help with my profile. Any feedback is appreciated.
Education
I am a 22 year old Indian male, graduated in 2015 from an upcoming Indian university in BSc Economics (Minor in Finance and Econometrics) with 3.11/4.0 GPA.
I would like to point out that the university has a weird way to calculate GPA. It is on a relative basis with 50% minimum passing and 2.0 the lowest GPA one can achieve.
Also, I recently sat for the CFA level 3 exam and am moderately confident that I'll clear it.
Work experience
I have been running my own coworking space for the past couple of months, before which I worked as a financial analyst at a local manufacturing firm for approximately 1.8 years.
I interned at the same firm and PETA India while in college.
Extra curricular activities
Completed a research intensive project in collaboration with a local NGO.
Event head at Economics festival.
Volunteered for Peta youth post which I was offered the internship.
Supervised a recreational center in a local slum area.
Actively involved in an annual eye camp.
Member of a National Science movement.
Target Universities
I am targeting STEM designated MS finance programs at the following universities:
MIT
Vanderbilt
Rochester
Fordham
Brandeis
Syracuse
Tulane
SUNY buffalo
Babson
My aim is to work in asset management or IB in USA. I plan to attempt GMAT soon and will not settle for a score below 700.
Please evaluate my profile and suggest how I can improve it. As I mentioned earlier, any feedback is appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Anuj,
It is smart to pursue a STEM course during these uncertain times. Atleast you will be able to work for 3 years after you graduate. I'm not sure about IB but you will definitely be able to get into asset management with MFin.
I didn't quite understand your current work - "I have been running my own coworking space". But your previous work ex does help you MFin candidacy because of congruence with your pre Mfin work ex and Post MFin goals. Plus you already having cleared 2 levels of CFA and hopefully the final one will put you on the top of the list.
Your extra curricular and community service accomplishments are also very good.
If you're able to score above 700 in your GMAT I think you have a realistic shot at MIT Sloan too. And other schools will definitely be in your range too. For now I think just concentrate on your GMAT and score as high as you can. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
Best,

Hi, thanks for the reply. To clarify on my current work, I own and operate a coworking space. It's basically an economical shared working environment along with several other services.
Your reply was very encouraging. I am a little concerned about my undergrad GPA but hopefully CFA and GMAT will cover it.
