I know the low GPA for b-school question comes up all the time, but I have a question that comes from a slightly different angle. I have a mediocre GPA from a top LAC and am trying to figure out how to shore that up before B school applications in a few years. I've heard the typical responses of 1. Just crush the GMAT and don't worry about GPA and 2. Take extra classes to try and show that you can handle the workload.
My question is what B School admissions will think of a 2-4 year post bacc degree in an engineering related major. I have become increasingly interested in computer engineering and am considering going back to get an online BS in Computer Science. I'm assuming that this can't hurt my application, but will schools really care about this or not?
