So I am only 6 months out of undergrad and finished with a 3.01 GPA with a BS Finance.
I know I need to beef up my resume with some extra classes before I apply (I don't plan on applying for a few years). But am taking my CFA Level 1 in December. Should I do both a class and the CFA 1-3 or does the CFA act as a substitute for the class? Oh I played a Varsity sport 4 years (Division 1) and my last two semesters, when I did not play, I made deans list and completed the semester higher than a 3.6. So my GPA trended upward.

Thanks!
