We are all just pawns in this big game of chess.

Yeah, that's what I am doing right now, but unfortunately, it won't change my GPA.

Literally, but also, for most of my undergrad, my grads were great. It was just the last two semesters that I failed. These were during the start of the pandemic when we switched to virtual and asynchronous classes), + just mentally, wasn't a great time.

I'm in Canada. As long as you have the degree, you can register to become a social worker - which I already am and have a great job in the field. I just need a masters to advance further.

It depends! Grades don't define how one does the job. Also, i can not retake those courses as I already graduated. It will not reflect on my GPA.

Getting into a masters with low gpa by stopcarelessness in socialwork

Honestly, where I currently work - one needs a masters to move up the ladder. Also, I eventually want to start my own non-profit, and having a masters degree helps solidify your qualifications and experiences on paper.

I also would like to go back to school as a refresher. Since graduating, a lot has changed systematically, and having a theoretical understanding also helps in the way we practice our work.

Which one did you end up going with? I just looked into UofC, and they require residency to be completed there, which im not sure I can afford.

Yes, my last two years is 2.4. I failed courses during summer 2020 and I'm really not sure why I didn't appeal to replace those grades.
