I am planning to apply to a handful of top MFE schools this year as well as two MFin schools (Princeton and MIT, either of which is where I truly would like to be next year). I feel pretty confident about my grades. I am a Mech Eng student at Georgia Tech with a 4.0, I transferred from Georgia Southern University with a 3.74, having a 4.0 average after my first year. I have only gotten 4 grades were not A's and all of them in my first year about 4 years ago (I have about a year of work experience in the mix too).
My concern: While my math/major grades have all been A's, I have a C in my Intro Macro-Econ class. Should I retake the class next semester to show that I can get an A in it or just let that be in the past and worry about more important things? The course is not hard, I was just immature then and had the misconception that my grades wouldn't matter there once I transferred. I am just worried about the class since it is Econ and I feel that would think that these schools would find that important.
