"Has your education ever been interrupted or affected adversely for reasons other than deficiencies in conduct or academic performance?"
I had one semester where I didn't do particularly poorly but it looks pretty bad. My gpa for this semester was a 3.417 but I got a C+ in Orgo I and withdrew another class (to try and save my gpa), ending up with only 12 credits that seemester. However this gpa was better than my first semester in freshman year which was 3.267.
Should I explain that the family death affected the semester in which I got a C+ in Orgo and withdrew from another class or should I just leave it since the gpa is higher than my freshman year's fall semester gpa?
