<p>First off hello I am new to this forum found it during the process of looking at grad schools. I am currently a Junior at Umass Dartmouth with a 3.1 GPA majoring in Finance. I screwed around way to much my first two years at school which is why I have such a poor GPA. I am considering staying at school one extra semester to retake the four classes I got C's in as well as take a calc course, apparently most business programs require it mine does not. Doing this will likely move my GPA to around a 3.4 to a 3.5 by the time I graduate. Will staying an extra semester and retaking classes look bad on a grad school application? Is it better to not retake the courses and graduate on time? Thanks!</p>
<p>EDIT*I am looking to take my GMAT and apply to business school a couple years after graduation</p>
