Started college in 2011 and have had a lot of set backs.
First semester of college my mom was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer, took 16 courses made all A's except for one F when I took my mom to her doctors appointments
A year later I had my appendix rupture and had 2 surgeries, very complicated and was in hospital over a month
Went two years with having pain and when I moved and finally went into a different hospital they saw remaining pieces of my appendix which lead to another two weeks in the hospital. So I now have about 8 or 9 more W's on my transcript.
Anyway, right now I have a 3.7 gap and good clinical, shadowing, volunteering and research experience from a couple years back but am now on academic suspension because of all my W's.
Is there anything I can do, or should I just accept that medicine won't work out?
