Male Female

I'd like to talk about a goal I set for myself, but I ended up failing to achieve it. It was to get a high GPA in my bachelor's degree at the university. I wanted to achieve this score to earn a scholarship. However, I faced many difficulties. I was committed to a full-time job, and I had many issues in my family. Because of my full-time job, I missed many classes. However, I did my best and put all my effort into achieving it. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed, but that's okay. I never gave up. I am always passionate about pursuing my master's degree and getting this scholarship. Now, I am applying for an appeal to explain my difficulties and the problems I faced. This experience taught me a lot, and I recommend to anyone who is a university student and aiming for a high GPA to avoid taking a full-time job. Focus on part-time work and take many notes during your classes. Also, ask many questions. Don't feel stressed or anxious. Everything will work out, and this too shall pass.
