It says on Booth website for UChicago undergraduate students:
“Credit is not awarded in the major for Accounting (30000-30001), Building the New Venture (34103), Investments (35000), Corporation Finance (35200), Tools for Business analysis: Excel and Matlab (36104), or Marketing Strategy (37000).”
These are probably the most introductory and popular courses, but audit is not allowed. So unless you can negotiate with the college to count the credit towards your major the default is that they would most likely be wasted. And typically, Booth course registration operates on a bidding system where senior MBA students who have the most points would pick the most popular courses and professors. And the grades at Booth are strictly curved; no course can have a greater than B+ average. That means if even you manage to take some leftover courses at Booth surviving them and getting good grades would be a slog.
