Slightly offtopic. But i was wondering whether such online extension courses(in stats, accounting etc) could be used to mitigate a low GPA.Do these courses award transcripts and do they hold any credence with the adcom. I am an international and cannot take live classroom courses in the US which would help build an alternative transcript.

Can someone post the link to the Berkeley online course list? The only thing I found was like four courses... i must be looking at the wrong thing.

I suppose it depends on the school. My info comes from two places: first when I was visiting Haas over the summer, I asked about ways to show that I am indeed quant-savvy, in spite of minimal coursework in college. One of the two co-directors said taking courses would do so, but that the courses would need to be for-credit. They would want to see transcripts or some kind of mid-term report from the professor. I had hoped to audit a course at Cornell, but that burst my bubble.
Second, I spoke with someone at the Johnson School admissions office about what courses I could take. She said that if you want to prove your quant-savviness, taking accounting wouldn't help -- it's not quantitative enough. I had taken calc (and done well) in college, so she said not to bother with that. Calc II was less important than statistics or finance. Micro and macro-econ were also important. In addition, she said to be very careful about where you take the classes. She recommended the Berkeley extension courses, saying that our local community college (and even Empire State, an online 4-year college that is part of the SUNY system) would not offer courses at a high enough level to really help you out. I would imagine that most 4-year public and private schools would meet the standard.
