I just finished my undergrad in applied math at a mid-ranked university, and now have started my masters at a lower ranked one.

Applied Math MSc: Possible for a quantitative, non-math major?

Hi,
I'm a 25 year old financial analyst, looking to return to get a MSc in Applied Math and "test the waters" of a possible Ph.D in math or econ. But I didn't take math in college.
Throughout middle school/high school I was passionate about math, taking through multi-variable calc in high school but then stopped in college, studying biology/economics (3.4 overall GPA, 3.9 Economics).
I've scored well on quantitative tests--1600 SAT, 178 on the LSAT (99.9%) and scored in the top 10 in the state on the AHSME. (again, high school) Any suggestions on how I can get into an applied math program for 2007? Do I need to take several math courses, and if so, which? Alternatively, would it be enough to study intensively for the math GRE and do decently well? Which programs might be open to students with little "pure math" background but strong economics, and high quant ability?
I am really interested in studying applications of math and committed enough to quit my job to begin preparing myself for school next fall.
Any help would be much appreciated!
