Alternate Transcript: Corporate vs Personal Finance

[Guest]

Hi Alex or Jessica,

I would like to take some additional courses to build an alternate transcript. Was a BBA major with a marketing focus so I did not take a lot of senior undergrad level Finance. Didn't do particularly well in 1st / 2nd year Finance hence I'm looking to take more classes.

Personally, I prefer to take Personal Finance, as they have immediate relevance to my day-to-days. However, will taking Corporate Finance be viewed upon as more favorable by the adcom given that I am aiming for a school like HBS?

Much Thanks,

CC

Just take whichever class you want most. So long as it's quantitative in nature (and both the courses you mentioned fit that bill), it really makes no difference to any adcom.
