I know the importance of building an Alternative Transcript to mitigate a Low Undergraduate GPA. I wanted to know for someone who is pursuing a CFA (Level 2 Candidate currently in June 2013), whether it makes sense to take Stats/Econ/Finance courses to display your strength in Quantitative Subjects, if you're already pursuing such a Quant heavy designation.
Furthermore, in Undergrad, I received A's in all of my Stats coures, an A in the only Finance course I took. My major was Economics, which has mostly A's with a couple B's and one D. Would you suggest taking Economics courses related to the ones I performed poorly in? I want to be smart about which courses I take because it is quite expensive and time consuming. My Undergrad GPA was a 2.97, so it's just a bit shy of a 3.0 and some serious mitigating circumstances. I'm willing to work hard to show that I have the capacity to perform well, but would like help in course selection.
I would really appreciate your help.
