I got a C+ in Calculus my freshman year in undergrad.

I re-took the course last summer and got a B+. It's not an "A", however it was an accelerated course (4 nights/week for 5 weeks) and I took it while working full time.

Do you think a B+ will be looked down upon or would AdCom appreciate the effort given the circumstances?

I took 3 quant heavy courses at extension and got 2 As and 1 B before applying to offset the crap grades I got in undergrad. The more you're confident in it, the better.

Chris558: No need to retake calc. Take another accounting or finance class. Your B in Calc is good enough.
DMN31: Your B+ in Calc is more than fine. Calc is a difficult subject and this more than demonstrates your ability to learn complex quantitative materials.
