<p>Really passionate about getting in finance. Since i was young Dad has always talked to me about business and investing. My cousin is my biggest role model, he's only 27 and doing really well for himself working in a multinational. Apart from business im really into current affairs, world conflict and politics. Currently in a political party in Malaysia called the DAP opposing the corrupt government in my country. </p>

<p>Any tips on what else i can improve on is greatly appreciated. Thanks again!</p>

<p>Wharton and MIT are very high reaches.
Michigan is probably a match.
Rest are average to low chance.</p>

<p>Only thing about your profile that stands out is the professional gaming, and I’m not sure how colleges even view that. It’s not academic in any way, and you won’t be able to use it to contribute to schools. I’m not sure, but it could even detract from your profile?</p>

<p>why would michigan be a match and not the others besides wharton and mit? </p>

<p>although gaming isnt academic in any way it involves heaps of teamwork especially if your wanting to play at a very competitive level, its like any other sport. i was competing for money and representing corporate sponsors and promoting their products at big events.</p>
