If a death in your immediate family occurs during a semester and you end up doing OK but not as well as you probably would've done without that major life event, should you let adcoms know that you went though a difficult time that semester even if your grades seem mostly consistent? I feel like I should still be able to let ADCOMS know I persevered in a semester despite major personal stuggle out of my control.
