The difference between CMU MSCF and Baruch MFE

[songgaoxian]

Hi, I just got AD from Baruch MFE, but still hesitated about whether or not I should continue my application for CMU MSCF. My career goal is to be an algo trader. Is there notable advantage of CMU MSCF over Baruch MFE? And I want to know the updated reputation status about Baruch MFE in US and in Asia.

if you can get into carnegie mellon there's no way you choose baruch over cmu. Even if I didn't believe cmu offers the better career opportunities, I'd still say apply anyway. Better to have choices. Also I don't think anyone in Asia has ever heard of Baruch..

So your career goal is to press a button that decides whether to execute market or limit order and how to split that order to decide that lowest cost/respectively highest profit? you couldn't go wrong with Baruch or cmu if you want to do that
