Hi all,
I'm a nontrad who has a pretty good grad GPA.
However, my undergrad career was less stellar:
Freshman year: 3.4, 3.9
Sophomore year: 3.6, 3.4
Junior year: 2.6, 3.1
How would I address the drop in GPA during my junior year without sounding like I am complaining? I know it is my fault that I was in that position in the first place, and as a result I don't feel like bringing it up in my PS.
Just to give you some background, during that time I was taking the max # of credits allowed by my school (21), applying for jobs (1st semester) and interviewing (2nd semester), working part-time, and trying to help my mom deal with unexplained illnesses.
Thanks for your help!
