Hi,

I'm planning on applying all over the UK for grad school, but after studying in London for a year and visiting Oxford a few times, I really fell in love with the school. I'm putting in an application, but I'm pretty sure my grades give me a slim chance of admission. I'm an American, and have searched everywhere trying to figure out what my GPA says about my chances but I haven't really been able to find an answer...

I have a 3.5 cum. and a 4.0 in my major. Does my major GPA matter at all...and also, *cue violins* I ended up getting really sick for a semester, which is why my cum GPA is so much lower than my major...should I even mention that?

Thanks!
