AuthorTopic: CFA for an MBA applicant

@2020-01-22 15:33:23		 Hello everyone. This is my first post on the forum, so I apologize in advance if this topic has been discussed before.

I currently work for a small hedge fund in Chicago, doing research for the equity stat arb desk. I am currently in the process of applying to 5 top business schools, so I can make a transition into equity research at an investment management firm.

I am preparing for worst case scenario since there's a decent chance that i won't get into any of the schools i'm applying to. Some people have told me that a CFA without an MBA can help me make the jump while others said that since i don't have previous experience, only an MBA from a top school will allow me to make the career switch.

Any thoughts/advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
