Hey Aturps, I am wondering where did you study your undergraudate degree? You got a 770 and still got waitlisted! That's crazy. How have your other applications been? Have you received offers from the lists of schools on your profile? I am actually applying to the other schools on your profile as well.
Hey Zenith. My undergraduate degree is from a top uni in Canada (McGill, UBC, U of T, Western, Queens) with a major in finance and minor in econ. Upper years I was top 5% of class but my first year I had awful grades so cGPA is just over 80%. Was pretty upset to get waitlisted at U of T, as it was a top choice for me, but I feel as though I did the best I could. 770 GMAT is clearly quite strong but my 770 is mainly driven by my verbal score, which I feel is less important for MFE.
Here are the results from my other applications:
Not applied yet: LSE, Oxford MFE (will apply round 3), Imperial
Interviewed/to interview: HEC MiF, Western MFE
Application Submitted: Columbia MFE, LBS MFA
Waitlisted: U of T MFE
What are your top choices? Heard anything back yet?
Good luck with your applications!
