Hi,I want to pursue Msc quantitative/compuational finance / financial mathematics. I just wanted to know my chances of getting an admit.I must admit that I got either awful grades or did not take relevant courses ( for instance , No Probability,statistics or linear algebra). But now, I think I am good at most of them ( probability,calculus,PDE,Stochastic calculus,Linear algebra, decent knowledge in derivatives) - all through self study. I know top notch univs are not for me..Just that I want to know which universities in US, UK, Singapore(NUS/NTU) should I aim for?Also, is there anything that I should do to convey my proficiency in specified math courses as they appear shady on grade sheet?I know CMU,Berk kind of things are out.. How abt lse,warwick,edinburgh,caas,rutgers,cornel,nus .. or any otherWill they just look at grade sheet or will they filter thru interviews or math tests? Will Math GRE test help?Can anyone throw some light on Msc.Quantitative finance at NUS & career prospects laterMy profile:Work exp - 7 years in high end software development - Java,C++ ( No financial exposure)Btech - mechanical engineering IIT madras 2003CGPA - 7.27 ( A = 9,B=8,C=7,D=6)Grades in relevant courses: Elements of Calculus -D Vectors, Matrices, Differential equations - C Physics 1 & 2 - B Engineering mechanics - A Fluid mechanics - B NUmerical analysis - C Special functions and PDE - B Complex analysis - D Dynamics of machinary - A Heat transfer, Turbomachines -B

I think solid General GRE and Math GRE (if you think you can do well) scores will do you a lot of good. Your GPA isn't horrible, I've seen a couple of people of that gpa range (from IITs, with work exp) at some ivy league MBA programs!
