Hello, I have just finished my undergrad degree, and am thinking of re-taking a couple of courses to boost my last year's overall GPA, and wanted your expert opinion on whether you think re-taking 2 more courses could really boost my chances of admission. Here is my situation:

Current situation:
Final year's GPA on 4.0 scale: 2.8
Final 2 years' GPA on 4.0 scale: 3.0

Now there are 2 courses I could re-take from my last year, that if I DO re-take would boost my overall averages to this:
Hypothetical Final year's GPA on 4.0 scale: 3.3
Hypothetical Final 2 years' GPA on 4.0 scale: 3.45

Now my current situation based on averages isn't very ideal, however I do have a 3.0 average over my last 2 years. My OVERALL CGPA is a 3.0 as well, if that helps at all. So would re-taking these 2 courses significantly increase my chances of getting accepted (of course along with a W.E and a good GMAT score)?

Thanks!
