additional courses suggestions pls...

theworldisflat wrote:Hi, I am an early career applicant and am interested in doing an MSc management in the UK or a MBA from a mid-range school if possible. With average gpa (upward trend), a good gmat (I am yet to take my gmat) and good extra-curriculars and leadership evidence, I feel taking a recognised online course and performing very well in it will boost my chances. Pls suggest what subjects I should be looking at, and if possible, gimme a few specific suggestions to I have an engineering background, so strong in calculus. Ideally, something not very long and possible to self study. THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hi there,

I recommend that you target business courses instead of calculus or statistics since you already have an engineering degree. A finance course might be your best option. Getting the hang of building financial models and understanding discounted cash flow analysis can be a bit intimidating once you are in business school, so the early exposure would definitely help. If you can do a traditional offline course, that would be best, but if you need to go with an online course, here are a few options to consider offered by reputable schools:

University of California at Berkeley Extension School - https://www.unex.berkeley.edu/online/

Penn State University - https://www.worldcampus.psu.edu/

Syracuse University - https://suce.syr.edu/students/current/co ... ce/online/

Hope this helps!
