Hello,
I am having 11 years of work experience (last 6 years in USA) and I am planning to appear for GMAT for EMBA. I did my engineering from India with a decent (but not great) final GPA. The grading in India is not done on 4.0 scale but rather on percentage scale (0-100). I had secured 75% (which was not bad considering my class average).
I know acing GMAT is a must to offset a low GPA but I am thinking of building alternate transcripts to strengthen my application. I am interested in UCLA Extension courses but since they are mostly held in LA, I don't think I can take on-campus courses (I am from Connecticut).
1) Is there any disadvantage of doing online course compared to classroom one? Are the online courses real time or recorded?
2) If I do an online course, will my transcript indicate that the course was completed online?
3) Do the Adcom consider online UCLA course any inferior to classroom one?
Thanks!
