<p>Hi hmom5,
How about if the person provides a written letter or contact information from the professor describing his grades for those respected classes? Sometimes, as with Pass or Fail grades, a student could use an audit to test himself without the fear of lowering his GPA. I have taken some of my quantitative classes as audits and got “A’s” in them. Even though it doesn’t reflect in my GPA. I would use the audit option for personal interest. It would have nothing to do with investment banking. If taking certain classes as audit bothers the investment banking personal who is interviewing me, then the only option is to not hire me. But only if I am allowed to prove that I have a strong quantitative background. Appearances, with regards to enrolling in quantitative classes as audits, can be very deceiving.</p>
