What Katie said. MBA Math is like a 12 to 20 hour commitment, kind of a no brainer imo. Given the situation, having a test score at all might put you at a slight advantage for Round 3. I am submitting a client to one top program with a relatively high acceptance rate for R3 because we already have 90% of the content. FYI GMAT will offer in-home testing middle of next month.

Hi guys,
I've been admitted to a T20 program in Round 1. And I want to prepare for it by taking one or both of these courses. Also, I have been waitlisted by several schools for Round 2 and would like to get off of it. My standardized test scores aren't very good, and I think it's one of the reasons why I was waitlisted. I saw that there were a lot of overlap courses in both, and was wondering should I do one or both? If so, which do you think is best/better? I will also try to retake the GRE/GMAT in hopes of improving my scores, but I don't think I will get it higher especially given the situation of the virus as most test centers are closed and Round 3 decisions are only weeks away. There isn't much I can do at this point, as work and my extracurriculars have been halted. So this is the one and only area I can truly improve on. Would love to hear your thoughts, especially from those who have taken one/both of these courses. Thank you very much for any help!

Are you saying it's a no brainer and I should go with MBA Math and/or it's the easier one? Or are you saying go with what Kate said and go with Harvard CORe? I'm sorry for misunderstanding you

Np! The main takeaway I got from what Katie said is that HBS Core will take a very long time to complete, and for that reason MBA math makes sense.

Yes, that’s exactly what I meant. Sorry if not clear!
