Hi Everyone,
I am a recent graduate with a undergrad business degree from a top Canadian school. However, my cgpa is only 2.63 but my 4th year gpa was a 3.3. I wouldn't say that my gpa had a gradual upward trend, more of a gpa of 2.3 for years 1-3 and a sudden jump in my last year. I was just wondering if I should even bother to plan on applying to some of the top US schools like Columbia, NYU or Berkeley and what GMAT score I would need to achieve in order to gain admission to these schools.
Here are some of the factors that affected my gpa: The hospitalization of a very close family member which resulted in her death during my second year final exams and my mother's battle with cancer in my third and fourth year.
I was wondering if adcoms will take these factors into consideration and if I would need to attach evidence (death certificate, doctor's notes etc...) to my optional essay. Also, how detailed should my explanation be?
On a side note: I am also planning to attend a 1-year college program in September for Advertising Account Management. Should this be included in my application?
Thanks for all the help!!

You won't know unless you try 
You'll definitely want to get the highest score you can on the gmat. Then, I'd suggest getting a bit of work experience, identifying your goals. I think after you have your GMAT score, and an idea of what you'd like to do - you can better select which schools will be within reach with your profile, whatever it is at that time.
cheers.
