Googlore,
Yes, it was a link to a microeconomics course, one of which happens to be offered through their online system. If you navigate the site a little, especially under
Mathematics, I think you will find what you are looking for. There is a caveat though, the Stats/Calc classes do tend to fill up quickly, so I suggest you jump on the waiting list as soon as possible.
Of course, there are several other options besides UC-online. If you want to save a few bucks (or in your case, hryvnia), just order the textbook, do the exercises included, and take a CLEP test at the same PVue center where you took the GMAT in Kiev. This also gives you greater flexibility to study at your own pace. CLEP tests are available for a vast number of courses.
Now back to your question at hand; once again, depending on the school you are applying to (I assume we are applying to equally ranked programs) for the most part you CAN mention academic work in progress while your application is being processed. A certain ~#15 adcom staff just confirmed so in an e-mail she sent out YESTERDAY. She did however, mention that an applicant may be provisionally admitted until the results of those courses (ie. transcripts) become available. Like many others here, including yourself, I will be applying in R2 (and even R3) while taking similiar online courses. Add to that possible interviews, campus visits, and work committments, and you get the brewing of one very busy spring season...
OK, so you got my attention dropping the phrase "Rocky Mountain High." Which state do you hail from? Utah? Montana? Whyoming? Or do you just enjoy listening to John Denver?
Good luck with your math studies...
Poka Poka,
Matt

Thanks for the link Matt. It was to a microeconomics course...is that what adcom recommended?
Do you recommend enrolling and sending some verification that you did so, or is it enough to just mention it in the optional essay that you plan to do it? I took the GMAT twice actually and brought my quant. up. I think you did too if I remember right. I was thinking about bringing up my improvement in the optional essay, but I'm not sure.
I'm in Ukraine right now (from Rocky Mountain High, too)
