Hey guys
I'm currently in Year 4 and am planning to apply for MSc Finance for 2015. I really appreciate it if I can get some valuable advice here. Here's my info as follows.
Age: 21
Nationality: Chinese
IELTS: L8.5 R9 W7.5 S7
Undergraduate: Major in Finance & Accounting, with a 3.2/4.5 GPA at a Canadian university (not top ones). My GPA for the first 2 years is 2.90/4.5, and 3.69/4.5 since then till now (will graduate May 2015). I heard that an upward trend is good for an overall low GPA (I hope so).
GMAT: 770 AWA5 IR8 Q50 V44
Work Experience: 0
Extracurricular: few
I'm planning to apply for Master in Finance in schools in the UK or US, and I still haven't got a clear idea about what schools are within my reach. Can you give some reasonable suggestions? Thank you very much!

Hi hopkinssu,
Your academics and GMAT Score are really good. Your GMAT Score is very impressive. There are couple of Business Schools in Canada that offers MS in finance. You can apply to B-Schools like Queens, Rotman, Schulich and McGill University etc.
You may also gauge your chances of getting admit in a business school by trying Your Chances for B-School tool https://bit.ly/1rRCod5
Hope this helps.
