I am stuying Mathematics at Warwick, going into my final year and I got a 2:1 in my penultimate year. This is an underperformance for me and I am confident that I will get a first next year and thus graduate with a first. Nonetheless when I apply to masters later this year my academic record will be a 2:1. In terms of work experience it is mostly academic internsips in statistics and programming. No experience in a financial instiution yet. I have read lots of books on trading and finance though.

My question: what are my chances of getting into masters in quantitatve finance/Mathematical finance (or similar) at:
-Oxford
-ETH Zurich
-UCL, ICL
-Manchester
-Edinburgh

Also, should I consider any other universities in addition to above?

Thanks in advance!
 
Warwick is good in Finance but less good in QF. I would recommand Imperial College, Oxford, ETH UZH as your first preferences and the others as backup
