If youve decided to do an informal postbacc, and you want to take the most beneficial courses in order to prove to admissions you can handle upper level courses, Do you think they want you to do it at ONE school (which often times have course times overlapping and I wouldnt be able to take all the courses i wanted bc they meet at the same time, so therefore id have to wait till NEXT spring in order to take the missed course as its only offered during this semester at this one school)? Or would it look bad if you take the courses at a few diff schools within the same semester in order to be able to take all the courses you want.
Do they care how many schools youve taken courses at? Does it look bad if when you send your transcripts in to aadsas during the app process that you have taken courses at multiple schools (during your post bacc that is, or maybe even undergrad i guess if you transferred etc)? Or is it just the course and content and your GRADES that count?
any advice/comments would be so helpful 🙂 thanks
At the end of the day, it will all be factored into your undergrad gpa, however in the coursework section of aadsas, is where the school breakdown will be, with what courses were taken, when and where.
I was thinking, maybe being able to create your own schedule, and take your targeted specific courses that you're after is a benefit of doing an informal postbac (or i guess some would say this is a hassle finding their own courses and thats why they do formal postbaccs)? So you can succesfully complete all the courses you want, within your specific time frame? Or is this bad logic. Open to opinions.
