Staying a 3rd year at CC for a top Business or Economics program? - Worth it?

<p>Just started my 2nd year at CC, and find myself contemplating whether or not I should stay one more year in order to improve my shot at some top business or economics programs. I'm finding myself scrambling to finish up TAP for UCLA, and Igetc.</p>

<p>I will be applying this year, but I'm thinking about staying one more year to boost my GPA further for the stronger schools, have my prereqs completed at the time of application, and have more experience. I don't think I'll have room this year to fit in a stats class for NYU though, and will still have 1-2 prereqs in progress during this spring before transferring.</p>

<p>Schools I will be applying to are UCLA bizecon, USC Marshall, Berkeley economics, NYU stern, Northwestern economics, and maybe Columbia economics.</p>

<p>My GPA after this semester will be 3.84, and I'll have letters of rec, a great personal statement, and hopefully an internship under my belt. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>bump - anyone?</p>
