Hi, I am an Indian student with a Bachelor's degree in Commerce. CGPA: 7.2.

I am going to give IELTS this week.
Work Experience - I work currently as an accountant for a small firm. (less than a year)

2) University of Strathclyde - MS Finance / MS Quantitative Finance
3) Warwick School of Business - MS Finance

Hi Swarna6387
Thanks for posting. You should have good chances at all of these programs, provided you submit strong applications. Please look into adding EDHEC to this list as well.
Hope this helps. Feel free to come back with more queries as needed. You can also directly reach out to us.

Hey Swarna6387,
I would say that you have a fairly decent profile. Talking about your Academics your GPA is pretty good and it would definitely help you outrun some of the competition in initial application screening.
As you are targeting specialized masters having a CFA or relevant work experience would add weightage to your profile and differentiates you from your competitors. Therefore, your work experience in the fields of Strategies, Management and Finance will surely help you to get an edge over the other applicants.
Coming over to your GMAT score, your score is a bit on the lower end for the top b-schools. The schools that you have mentioned in that UCD and Warwick don’t require a GMAT score so you can apply for the same. Other than this you can apply for ESADE and ESSEC as well. You just need to make sure you have a strong application. Though if you are sure of increasing your score by 30 points I would suggest you retake your GMAT.
We would also suggest you have a look at a master’s in management with a specialization in finance as per your current profile.
Can you mail me your extracurriculars and job responsibilities on [email protected] so that I can give you concrete suggestions based on the same?
