I have three grades on my transcripts which could be concerning for admissions committees:
Thanks in advance for your help!
- An I which became an F from a community college course I took in high school. I took the class out of interest and did very well in it initially, but I had to leave the class halfway through because I was traveling out of the country with my family and I could not make up the remaining work. Because this grade is from high school, I am hopeful that adcoms won't ask about it, but it's still on my transcript, so I'm not sure if I should bring it up.
- A C in an intro calc class in fall semester freshman year. I hadn't taken calculus since sophomore year of high school and underestimated the amount of work I needed to put in to refresh my memory. This was also my first semester and a transitional period for me.
- A C in a human anatomy lab class in fall semester junior year. I took a light course load that semester, which actually worked against me because I just didn't put enough pressure on myself to prepare and study for this class. I took more classes the next semester to pressure myself more and my grades improved significantly, but this grade is still the most concerning to me.
Thanks in advance for your help!
