My GPA breaks down as follows:
HS:
BCPM: 3.00
Total: 3.30
FR:
BCPM: 4.00
Total: 3.90
Soph:
BCPM: 3.66
Total: 3.80
JR:
BCPM: 3.14
Total: 3.35
SR:
BCPM: 3.74
Total: 3.84
TOTAL UG:
BCPM: 3.56
Total: 3.64
The question is, how do I explain the dip in my junior year (act. my soph yr of college but AMCAS classified it as junior). All my other semester GPAs were 3.80+ . I didn't mention it in my Personal statement. Should I have? I didn't think it was that low to mention it. What should I do if it comes up during the interview?
To be honest, the 'dip' was due to only 1 semester. It was a semester where I believe I took too many courses. Being diagnosed with mono two-thirds of the way through that semester did not help. Any thoughts?
