Hi,
Please give an evaluation for MIT MFin:
Undergraduate: 3.5 Overall GPA with Accounting major from a liberal arts school in Midwest (accounting GPA of 3.9)
Currently on my 2nd year at PwC Chicago (working on core assurance/external audit of insurance/FS clients)
GRE: 150 V/165 Q
Co-authored a publication during undergrad with my college professor in a decent finance journal (Managerial Finance)
College leadership: Resident Assistant, President of Intl Club, Currently helping interns and first year associates in projects at PwC
Additional: Couple of research experiences during undergrad within my college's research program
Weakness: Very few college level mathematics classes taken (only calc I & II; basic statistics); went to a small liberal arts school and not a big university; not a competitive verbal score on GRE.
Any thoughts about programs that I have a good shot to get into? Especially, do I hold a good chance at MIT? Thank you. Appreciate your suggestions.

I think your odds at MIT are pretty low. I think your work experience is good, co-authoring the paper is nice. Good quant score on your GRE. I'd say MIT is a 25% chance.
Other than that, I think you'd be very competitive at most of the other top MSF programs. My advice to you though would be to not do an MSF. You're on your second year and any MSF program you got into wouldn't start until the late spring or fall. You're one year away from having enough to do an MBA and with your profile I think you'd be competitive at a lot of good schools. Since you work in Chicago you could look at Ross, ND, Northwestern, Chicago. Might have to bump up your stats/get a promotion at work for the latter two.
