Hi, everyone. I have seen a number of secondary prompts that ask the writer to explain "poor grades or academic inconsistencies". Obviously, this is an optional essay, since some people may not have any poor grades. In these cases, where nothing is specified, what qualifies as needing to be explained in secondaries? Anything below a B (including B-)? A grade of C? Only if you have multiple grades of C or below? Failing grades only? I am quite confused.
Also, in terms of inconsistencies, would a single poor grade count in this regard? Or is this question only really asking about a significant period of low grades or something like that?
As always, thank you to all who respond for your input!
