By the time of my application, I will be approximately 5 years out from undergrad. I was worried about the age of my coursework because some schools state that they want prerequisites to be done within the past 5 years or so. I contacted a bunch of schools, and about half said something along the lines of expecting recent coursework, within the past 5 years, within past 3, within past 7, recent proof you can handle academic rigor, etc. The other half said that coursework does not expire. I am now working both full time and part time jobs and doing a lot of volunteering, and I was going to try and tack on one upper level class next semester. I am wondering if this would even help, since it is only one class. Alternatively, I suppose I could quit the part time job and try to take two courses, although I am not sure that it is worth it. This part time job is giving me experience for my application that I cannot get otherwise.
