Hey everyone. I would really appreciate any input or advice about my current situation. I am a senior at a top 50 university and i began my college career very strong. However, i developed depression in my sophomore-junior year and my grades dropped rapidly. Instead of recognizing my call for help, my family didn't understand depression and it took me a very long time to get back to where i was previously. I'm wanting to go into a post bacc program and go the DO route but i'm unsure if i'll even get accepted into a post bac. I've only taken a few pre-req courses. Just an FYI, i transferred to my current university. Here are my stats:
cumlative gpa: 3.3
gpa at my current uni: 3.6
Biology 1: B
Biology 2: D-/A
Chemistry 1: D/B
Calculus: F/A (When i took calculus the first time, i talked to my professor about wanting to drop her class before the last drop date was approaching because i knew i would do poorly in the end. However, she insisted that i should remain in it and would receive a B if i got __ grades from that point on. I ended up trusting her, stayed in the class, and received those grades but still received an F in the end. This is my first and only F on my transcript...didn't even receive this grade in high school!)
As far as EC's, i worked as a scribe for 1 year and participated in a research program about cardiopulmonary transplant valves. Although my grades don't show it, i am highly motivated and working as a scribe really made me realize how badly i want to be a doctor. Do you think i can get accepted into a post bacc? and which ones?
Also, if i retake those classes ^ in post bacc, how will they be calculated for med schools?
