Alternate Trancscript--What Classes to Take?

VIP

Hi Amy,
Thank you for replying to my post about my profile...I have almost completed my applications. The realism of my profile has set in, and realize that i am longshot for almost any school i want to attend. (Mccombs, Emory, Georgetown)

I think i am great MBA canidate, but my gpa and undergrad transcript is horrible. I have Ds and Fs in my calculus courses, and a C in statitistics. I have 710 (47Q, 40V) GMAT, and great career progression...i just need to show i can do the coursework.

What classes do you reccomend i take to build an alternate transcript? Do the UC extention classes hold value? or should i try to take them at a community college?

I want to start ASAP, so i can go for R1 next year.

Thanks for your help.

Hi VIP,

I just posted a sticky on ways to deal with a low GPA that may help you. You'll definitely want to re-take the classes that received a grade lower than C. UC extension is great, community college is great - really any school that will provide college level classes and a transcript.

Good luck!
