How difficult is to get admission in NUS Msc Quant Finance coming from a tier 3 college in India
I am undergrad BTech student in india, My major is Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. I dont come from a very reputed college, its Tier 3, no recognition as such, I am in third year, i have developed a very keen interest in the field of Quant Finance, and i mostly probably wanna make a career in it. My CGPA currently is 8.57 out of 10, in terms of GPA- 3.41. I can try my best and bring it to around 3.5-3.6 hopefully by the time I complete my graduation.
I have started steering my career towards quant finance, I did NPTEL - Probability and stochastics for Finance course by an IIT kanpur professor - joydeep dutta, I first started it to see if I genuinely wanna be a part of this field, and i realised, i do. I wont be applying before gathering some work experience in the field of finance, I'll most probably work for 2 years somewhere, and then apply. I have working on building derivatives pricing black scholes based projects, at the moment they are fairly basic in my opinion, but i am genuinely trying. Coming from a tier-3 college. It is going to be important for me to get myself into a good reputed college for quant finance masters, or else i am done for in this field.
I wanna ask someone who has been to NUS, NUS alumnus, or anyone who knows what's the reality for getting into NUS MSc Quant Finance major. How difficult it is gonna be for me to get into the course. I am scared thinking what if i dont make the cut and if it takes more efforts, i wanna know what i should do since i plan on applying in the year 2029 and wanna start preparing for the same.
Please if someone can show me the real picture, it will be of great help
Thank you.
