Hi Stacy,

I had a question. My undergrad gpa was on the low end around 2.9. However, I was able to take some graduate level classes since then. I took Statistics (A), Math for Economists (B+), Macroeconomic Theory (A), Programming in Economics and Finance (A-). I took the GMAT a few years ago and got a 610 without much preparation.

I would like to apply this spring to start Fall 2010. I'm looking to apply to NYU Stern part-time and Fordham's part-time program. The deadlines for them are May 15 and June 1 respectively.

My question is whether it would be better to take an additional class or focus on the GMAT and try to get a higher score? Which would strengthen my application more?

I would have 3 years of post college experience by the time I would apply.

Thanks in advance for the response!
