High GPA vs. Course Retakings

I've got a question regarding academic records. I've got a pretty respectable GPA (~3.7), but I also have a couple of courses that I either received a grade and retook or withdrew from the course. Specifally, I earned a C- and a C in another class and chose to retake those. I also have a withdrawal in another class. While the grades I earned in those classes aren't horrible, I still feel they might be a liability on a transcript for a top business school. I was wondering how top business schools view GPA's in light of circumstances such as those outlined that influence them?

Dear btm843,

With an overall GPA of 3.7, I would not worry too much about an occasional C in a course (especially if it was more than 5 years ago when you took the class). The key is to demonstrate you have the academic aptitude, namely the quantitative skills, to handle business school. Your cumulative GPA shows you to be a good student, and a strong GMAT score will also demonstrate your academic aptitude for business school.

Good luck,
Lisa
