Both of my parents died when i was ~3. For all legal purposes this made me a ward of the state/orphan even though I was raised by my grandmother. Should I include this in my personal statement along with my grandma having to stretch 1 sub-minimum wage paycheck across 4 dependents?
I wanted to include this to show I never really had a traditional family unit supporting me which contributed to my lower GPA
