Long story short - I took a years worth of a challenging foreign language as a requirement to graduate with my second major of choice. My GPA suffered as a result. Should I explain this in an addendum or will the Admissions Committee review my transcripts and disregard it since its a foreign language and has little to do with my ability to succeed in law school? If I should write an addendum, how should I go about it without sounding like a whiner/arrogant?
Additionally, I took the LSAT more than once and plan on writing an addendum for my LSAT score. Should I keep the two addenda separate and attach two separate addenda or upload it as one file, on two separate pages?
Thanks!

If you want to go about writing about what happened -- you might mention that you made some mistakes by either overestimating your abilities/not being prepared/etc (you should admit to some sort of mistake -- but dont admit too much lol) and then talk about what you did to rectify the situation, how you handled it, and how that was a one time mistake and you've learned your lesson and took it as a learning experience.
As for the LSAT, @"Cant Get Right" nailed it!
