<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Thanks for the help 
</p>
<p>I know my grades aren’t great. Now, in the Indian education system, it’s par for the course for Junior Year grades to be much lower than Sophomore Year (because the school holds the exam in the former, whereas the board holds it in the latter) and the rigor of my workload increased DRASTICALLY, but that still doesn’t excuse my low score.</p>
<p>But the thing is, I’m going to address this in my Common App essay. Junior Year started with a death in the family and a fracture in my right (and dominant) hand. I was meek and picked a workload my parents thought was best for me and, surprise, was neither passionate about it nor talented in it. I’m going to write my essay on how all these things debilitated my performance a great deal but they also taught me stuff (even if it was the hard way) and how they helped me grow as an individual. And that’s how I’m going to find a spot to explain my uptick in Senior Year scores.</p>
<p>I don’t want to sound vain but I am very fond of writing and, some would say, good at it too. This topic is very close to me and I’m confident of pulling out a great essay.</p>
<p>Now, about the supplement I really don’t know.</p>
