Any Inputs ?

Should I bother about giving reasons for low score in 1st and 2nd year of B.com or should I not write about it in SOP at all? And Should one mention their scores in lower classes like 10th and 12th in SOP as marksheets of these classes are not part of the application checklist?
 
I dont see any challenge in your profile. Good to go. Btw your bachelors marks are okay and balanced out by high school and ielts marks. Suprisingly my profile is similar to yours, hence I wouldnt be the best to comment or give a final say. Never the less a strong sop detailing your educational journey could very well boost the allready strong profile.

you said that my grad marks are balanced out by high school marks... but the visa officer doesn't even have access to my high school or 10th marks? :'(

u say B com 57% right does it say 57% on ur degree cert or u just calculated based on all 3 years and is not officially mentioned anywhere ? what does ur degree certificate say?

Does that matter ? My degree certificate says pass class however the total comes to 51.44 %
yes it matters ......if it is not written any where that OP got 57% overall then i am guessing OP's final year grades would be on the degree cert making it a first class or distinction i guess ..also then it will show steady improvement in grades making OP's case stronger.

Hi Mead,

It doesn't say anywhere on my marksheets or degree. On the marksheets for three years the scores are mentioned as 272 out of 550 for 1st year, 312 out of 600 for second year and 435 out of 650 for third year. and on the third year marksheet consolidated marks are written too as 1019 out of 1800.
for the degree, it is written he passed B.com course in 2nd Division. thats it. Percentage marks are not written anywhere. Can you please explain how all this will affect my application?

not a big deal but since consolidated marks r written they will be considered... also ur degree says second class .....not to worry it will still show ur performance was increasing.....sometimes degrees only show last year grades so asked....
