I have a 3.5 GPA, both in science and cumulative. I had a dual degree in business and a generic science major - so my course load was full or more than full in any given semester. My grades were 3.63, 3.2, 3.4, 3.9 for each year. Sophomore year was when my grades really got me due to an overly full courseload (i took two more classes than the maximum) as well as 50-60 hours of extracurriculars - making me get a C+ in one of my science classes. I really do not want to reapply next year and definitely don't have the money to do a postbacc.
Should I send a letter to my schools explaining that I had poor time management during sophomore year and that I slowly figured out how to balance my life/strategies that I learned for self care (I went from not eating for three whole days to eating and sleeping consistently)?
I really think I improved a lot during my senior year, unfortunately it was only one year and does not prove much on its own.
