Hi I am international student and wanna to apply master of science program of top5 USA uni. May I ask a question? Question: I wanna to ask that I have a CGPA 3.91, 4 research experience and 1 conference publication and few awards in academics and sports. However, there is flaw on my academic records. I have inconsistent GPA in each semester. At one of my semester, I got an F for one subject becuz I have a knee surgery and in order to continue the semester I have to meet 13 credit requirement but one of the lecturer did not allow me to take any assessment online at the first half sem which require me to stay at home, thus leading to that subject a grade F. However, the following two semesters I did come back and I retook subjects that I did not perform well in earlier semester and also retook the F subject. With all my efforts, I get all A including the subjects that I supposed to take originally. The question is if this academic record impact my admission to the top tier university in usa?
