low grades

Hi everyone!

I’m planning to apply for the GKS G scholarship in 2027 for my Master’s, but I’m worried because my overall undergraduate grades are quite low (around 70-75%). However, I’m working hard to improve my final-year results, and I’m preparing a strong SOP, recommendation letters, and plan to get high scores in TOPIK and TOEFL and extracurricular activities certificates.

Has anyone here gotten GKS G despite low grades? Does a strong application and other achievements help compensate for a lower GPA? Should I try University Track or Embassy Track? (i am from India)

Any advice or experiences would help so much. Thank you!
