Hi,

I was looking to do some coursework in business subjects (finance, economics, stats, accounting) that could provide with the fundamentals of atleast undergraduate level. I could figure out some courses from UCLA ext and berkeley ext.

Does anybody have any first hand experience of these? How is the content and rigourous nature of these?
Any other info anyone has?

Cheers,
Sohrab

I've had a solid experience so far taking Intro to Stat through the Berkeley Extension. The coursework isn't the toughest you'll get, but it will suffice. It's really what you make of it - how well you do the reading and participating in class chats. Pace of the course is totally up to you - I plan to spend about 3-4 months on the course.

Stats and Accounts are the best to start with. These are considered to be the areas which you will need to brushed up well. Whats going to be your major?

"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."
