This is a post everyone must read, because everyone has had at least one or two bad semesters.

Sometimes, people go overboard and don’t think small mistakes can be fixed, even though most times it is not that tough to show

MBA admissions committee how bright you truly are.

1) What’s the trend:

Were you weak freshman year but getting straight A’s in senior year? If this is your story, don’t worry too much because you showed how you can learn from a mistake and grow from the experience.

If you were on a downward trend, this is more concerning because it might seem to the admission committee that you could not handle some of the harder courses (barring an unforeseen circumstance like ill health.

If that was a weak spot, try to take classes at local schools to show in an additional transcript that you can handle the work and have

If classes are not feasible because you are busy, try to show a varied skill set in community service opportunities, leadership at work, and in your essays on experience. Sometimes bad transcripts can be overlooked because you have grown from your early twenties.

If you were really involved outside of school, this might make an interesting side essay to explain it. Talk about big accomplishments during and after colleges because of those out of classroom experiences. This could really help you stand out in a pile of applications.

4) Strengths in other Places:
