OH and i have a question that maybe NYU-Stern students could answer:

Should Stern-hopefuls take business classes if their schools offer them?

I asked this question at the NYU info session and he said "yes",
but I'm having a hard time fitting business classes in my senior year schedule.
Also, this summer, I'll be attending a business education program at Rutgers University called "BizEd". It's a non-credit coursework program that introduces students to many key aspects in the business world (Accounting, Management, Marketing to name a few).

Do you think NYU would take this into consideration in the application process?
