So freshman year I had a rough start. My overall GPA is pretty reasonable for med school admissions (~3.7 but I haven't graduated yet). However, my freshman year grades were pretty low. The problem is that most of the classes I took freshman year were "core" classes or pre-med requirements.
Biology - B
Gen Chem - C+
Calculus - B+
I also took piano and a "public speaking" class but I did really well in those.
Now things are different. After I got over the freshman year hump my grades have been pretty stellar. Mostly As with the occasional B. I also am involved in undergraduate research, extracurriculars, and I spend my summers volunteering. How detrimental will the freshman year grades be?
