Why does it seem like everyone suddenly has an onset of “personal problems” in their freshman year? I’m sure some people actually do go through some tough crap but seriously everyone has problems and always will. I just finished my freshman year and I had family problems and was prescribed antidepressants and all but I don’t consider that a reason for my low GPA (~3.3). My GPA wasn’t great because I didn’t know how to study and I had poor school habits.
Everyone is transitioning in their first year. Don’t be so quick to blame it on problems which everyone has.
