Hi, I'm an international student that goes to top 15 university in the U.S. with full-time opportunity secured in one of top BBs (GS/MS/JPM), S&T division in Asia (not HK/SG). I know for a fact that I want to come back to the U.S. in the long run, and therefore want to start thinking about business school. With that, I was hoping if you guys could give me some advice!
- I currently have a 3.7 GPA in economics, but do you think it is worth double majoring in math at the risk of lowering my GPA to 3.6 or 3.5? Does a 3.5 GPA not meet the cut for top MBAs in the U.S.? I do have the intellectual curiosity to learn & study
- I passed CFA level 1 - should I complete the curriculum and enroll in levels 2 and 3?
- Does working experience in a non-major hub city get discounted? How long should I stay in the markets before moving on to MBA? (thinking about consulting, investment management, or IBD post-MBA)
Thank you, and I would also appreciate any general advise to a college senior.
