Hey guys

I'm currently a sophomore studying math (major GPA: 3.9; overall: 3.6+). And I plan to apply for some Math Fin./ Fin. Eng. programs next year. My target program may be NYU Columbia UCB UCLA...etc. I have taken a few computing courses in my school, like JAVA intro and MATLAB... But I didn't get a really decent grade for my JAVA intro course...(like a 3.3) And since this is just some introduction stuff, I think it might not be enough to qualify the computational requirements for MSMF/FE programs. My school mainly teaches JAVA and also provides some additional courses for non-CSE majors. Do you guys think I should also take some additional JAVA courses and try to get a good grade in order to justify my ability in computing? And do you guys suggest me to do the QuantNet C++ Certificate this summer?

I need some advice on how to strengthen my computing skills.

Thanks!!!
