Hello--
I am thinking of applying next fall (2012) but don't have any college math classes worth mentioning on my college resume (one bad grade in a theoretical class). I'm thinking I should take a math class sometime soon, and am trying to figure out if I should take multivariable calc (I would need to review my BC calc in order to do so) or if I should take a statistics course--I could see arguments either way. I'm pretty confident in my ability to get a good grade either way, so it really is just a question of which would be better to demonstrate that I'm not 100% poet.
Thanks!
J. Dove

Hey J. Dove -- either of those would help your profile significantly in the application process. We've heard some bschool adm ppl specify that they like to see a calc class. A few schools actually have a stats class as a pre-matriculation requirement (Haas EWMBA does) but this is somewhat unusual. Either of these classes would go far in demonstrating to the adcom that you're more than a poet!!!!
Hope this helps -- and oh yeah, it's totally awesome to see that you're planning this far in advance!! You should be in great shape by the time next year's Rd 1 rolls around!!!

Either are good. Take both if you can. The idea is to show that you are making headway yourself on what might not be your strong point.

Hi,
It's a great thing that you are deciding to take these classes. Either of the classes could help you establish yourself as more than a poet. All the very best with your classes and with the application process thereon. This is a wise step to take when you have time would boost your profile academically.
