Hi there! so I’m a senior in undergrad (sociology and psychology major) looking to apply to some PhD programs!
HOWEVER, this past summer I had some problems with drinking (and depression/anxiety) and ended up withdrawing from the term, so I have two W’s on my transcript for linear algebra and intro to computer programming. How should I address this in my personal statement? Also, if you have any advice on talking about how psychology became an interest that would be helpful as well! I’m trying to make sure I don’t use cliches like saying it was interesting or that my mental health had a big part in it (even though it did).
