Hi Andy, as a second-year Quantitative Finance student in Vietnam about to dive into major courses, I’d love to get your insights. What technical skills and foundational knowledge are essential for a career in quantitative finance? Are there any specific tools, languages, or mathematical concepts I should master?
Also, Do you think I should use macOS for this field? Thank you very much for your advice! :love:

At the very least, master C++ and Python as they will be your meal tickets. Read as much about the finance industry as you can. Mac or PC is just a tool. Pick one that makes your job easier.
Hi Andy
I wanted to know whether MFin is a good way to get into IBs. I'm a recent graduate with my bachelors being from a non finance background. I have cleared 2 levels of CFA and am working as a valuation analyst. I am planning for MS and am puzzled between MFin and MFE. Would appreciate your advice on the value of a MFin from a reputed college in todays world and whether it will help me in finding a good job.

Investment banking is different from quantitative finance that many of our members aim for. You dont need a quant degree. You need to graduate from a target school.
