If you decide to go through recruitment this fall, one thing that I would absolutely NOT do is use phrases like "I got screwed over" or draw yourself as a victim. If you didn't do well because you weren't sick, accept it and don't paint a pity story. I don't know your situation (sorry, I haven't read the whole thread yet), but I missed the last few months of my junior year because of illness and it was really up to me to take responsibility and do the best I could, on my own at home.
