most school only have fall admission anyway.

P.S. that is Ivey, instead of Ivy. Ivy means that league in US.

1. a finance degree is better than an English degree in terms of quantitative background, but it is still not enough for any stuffs in the science faculty, nor economics department (most likely). focus on program in business school
5. get multivariate calculus, and linear algebra before you graduate, even in the last semester. key requirement for any (even slightly) quantitative program.
and listing 基础会计 as 数学相关课 reveal the fact that you have completely no idea about what mathematics is at all. Think twice if you really know what quantitative is.

I cannot understand why you are limiting yourself at Jan intake. Really rare that they offer Jan intake (obviously Ivey is an exemption.......this is not a bad idea for a 3 semester program indeed, just like UCB/UCLA MFE)

Most school / program only have Sept/Oct intake, unless you are talking about Australia.

Therefore I guess you have to look into more school and program first.

感谢前辈！当时加上基础会计只是想考虑accounting的可能性，所以没太注意，不过基本可以忽略不计了。我也知道数学背景是短板，虽然高中的时候是理科生。金融数学和金融计量的课程里都包括了微积分和概率统计，但感觉很难说清楚。
另外想问一下，如果这种情况下，先工作或许gap一年再申请会不会可能弥补一些背景呢？前辈有什么建议吗><

1. accounting is another world.
2. secondary school mathematics doesn't count at all. Far not enough.
3. calculus, probability and stat review in a financial mathematics, and financial econometrics course is a bit helpful, not again far not enough. indeed, math/stat course in econ/fina department are different from those in sci/engineering faculty. the level is different even the topic are the same - the ability and experience of proving is the key different.
4. working experience does help in application, but......this depends on which kind of working experience, and which kind of program you are talking about. similar logic for gapping a year - what do you plan to do that year?
normally, a applied nature program (e.g. financial mathematics, statistics) program in the math/stat/OR/etc... department view a sufficient math background as a must, which the quantitative program in business school (e.g. financial engineering, business analytics) view them as a very big plus. related working experience, I mean really related one, help application towards business school a lot, but without a decent background in that certain field, getting a related first experience is near to impossible.
