Low GPA, crazy explanation, worst COVID situation

Hello everyone,

I´m a recent graduate (BBA) from a TOP3 business school from Spain looking to get into investment banking, but I have a very low GPA (6/10)...So here´s the reason:

在过去的5年中),我本来会从一所顶级学校获得学位拆除夜生活,现在至少在近距离的未来,我再也无法继续经营自己的生意,我想找到一份工作IB或者something related to finance. Overall if it wasn't for the GPA I have an OK resume for a recent graduate:

- 语言西班牙语和英语

- 美国的公民经验

-Good finance-related internship

-Investment club at university

...etc

但是,从我在互联网上阅读的内容来看,不良的GPA破坏了您在这个领域找到工作的选择,我会带我CFA我很快的考试,但是据我所知,这对PEand Hedge Funds but not so much forIB...

那么...我有什么选择克服如此糟糕的GPA?

I know many of you are going to say an MSc in Finance, but afterCFA一级,花5万美元只是为了在我的简历上展示一个好的GPA似乎太多了(因为我可能不会在顶级商业学校获得文学学士学位后学习很多新事物CFA...)。

IsCFAL1 enough for an entry-level job? Another language?

Thank you.

I was making a lot of money

spending $50k just to show a good GPA on my resume seems too much

tony61montana, 你怎么看?以下评论:

I haven´t rejected that option yet. I´m not saying $50K is much (which it usually is for a 23-year-old). I´m saying I will probably not gain any additional knowledge given my finance background, and it will mean $50K just for a good GPA on my resume, I don´t know if it's worth it.

privateequityrecruiting96, 你怎么看?以下评论:

很抱歉,您的大学与您的大学无关,您不会通过第一次放映。

Maybe if you studied at ICADE things could be different for some boutiques, but you stand no chance from other Spanish unis (at least in London, no clue in regional offices) --> If you land any of these boutiques you could lateral later on, but it may be hard without working experience in the finance field

Choosing to studyCFALVL1一直是您的决定,您可以直接获得MSC,如果您参加目标,关于学习曲线的目标将很好地定位,那么我恐怕如果您没有取得更好的结果,这可能是教育不良的迹象,因此您可能比您预期的要学得更多
