I've got a question on my application that reads: Are there any reasons why your transcript does not reflect your true academic ability? If yes, provide any reason(s) you believe your transcript does not reflect your true ability or why your transcript has gaps, course withdrawals or less than a full course load. Do not assume that a rater will be able to find this information within your file materials. If participation in an educational exchange program, a professional experience year, or co-op program is not noted on your transcript, note this activity and its time frame.
I've got a 3.64 cGPA and thinking of saying yes to this question. My cGPA of year 2 and 3 comes out to 3.9 which is a lot better than 3.64. My first year marks are dragging down my gpa. Should I answer yes and explain I had difficulty adjusting to the way university style teaching and learning/studying works? Will this even matter?
