I am looking to get my MBA. While in college 9 years ago I didn't achieve a competitive GPA. My GPA ended up at 2.8. I am looking to enhance my chances by making better preparations prior to applying. I found some free online courses for pre-MBA courses online that go over Finance, Math, Economics, etc. I am thinking of taking these classes. I also want to prep for the GMAT with enough time as well. Has anyone taken these online courses? Should I prep for the GMAT first before taking the pre-MBA courses? I notice some people say that you need a knowledge of calculus. Is this necessary for the GMAT or is this something necessary prior to attending B-School?

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
