<p>My first degree in economics was low like 2.51 because of personal issues such as lecturers telling outsiders my grades also comparing me to me my family, my father and mother are critical of me and i was dealing with depression , i had to go to therapy to deal with these issues , i got documentation saying i went and dealt with the issue during that time. I am doing a second bachelor's degree in banking and finance with London School of Economics and Political Science online to get into a good graduate school, my gpa for that is 3.32 currently
Should i only upload the transcript of the banking and finance undergraduate degree to get into a good school, ignoring the first degree in economics </p>

<p>Also i could do gmat and the CFA exams</p>

<p>Because your most recent degree has much better marks than your first, I wouldn’t worry. The most recent grades are what matters. You can explain that you were having ‘personal problems’ or ‘health problems’. I wouldn’t make any criticism of previous lecturers as it’s more subjective. Don’t even mention that bit.</p>

<p>Only do the GMAT if the grad school in the UK wants it. They don’t usually use it at all so there’s no point spending the money if it won’t help you.</p>

<p>How do you have a GPA from a UK university? That’s not the way things are graded in the UK.</p>
