<p>The ad coms will notice you self studied if you say so or ask someone else to say so. (Good thing for your GC to say.) Your scores are great - it's hard to say if you are going to look like a slacker with some poor grades. It's not so bad if your grades have gotten better or if you have a good excuse.</p>
