Re: Addendum critique
How big was the improvement? Is an addendum really necessary?

Re: Addendum critique
This is fine, just don't start with "I am including an addendum..."
Just go:
ADDENDUM:
BLAH blahblahblah BLAH
Just go:
ADDENDUM:
BLAH blahblahblah BLAH

Re: Addendum critique
you may want to include hard numbers - eg, FA08 was a 2.x gpa, whereas FA09 was a 3.x gpa - if the difference is significant.
it might be a good idea to state that you'll provide medical records upon request (and get a copy to have on hand in case they ask).
also, i don't like the phrase "deal with." "cope with," "manage," etc may be better. but that's probably just me being picky.

Re: Addendum critique
In that case, I agree with cherry. The addendum looks good, but scratch the first part.Fiction wrote:Isn't it bad form to be redundant on the application? They can easily see those numbers on my transcript.jayn3 wrote:you may want to include hard numbers - eg, FA08 was a 2.x gpa, whereas FA09 was a 3.x gpa - if the difference is significant.
