I never originally in high school thought about becoming a doctor, I always wanted to be a detective, I even got into a school in the top 5% for Criminology. Then reality hit, I found that path not viable. I then decided since I loved helping people so much and helping children especially, I...

Hi guys, I am studying medicine on the 3rd semester, which means we are going through biochemistry. I always looked forward to biochem, as I like when stuff gets really detailed and geeky (such as molecular structures and functions, hard math problems, etc.), but right now I am quite...

(UVA = University of Virginia, Probably regarded as the best public state school in VA) UVA allows visiting students in the summer sessions only. Obviously I did not have the High School grades to get into UVA as a 1st year (freshman.) *BIO I/II in the summer is already a done deal. Would it...

I am a second year student at a reputable private university, and I feel like I am not being challenged enough to where I feel any satisfaction in doing well. I am a biology major, and the biology classes are an absolute bore. Adding onto that, the classes that I am most interested in, which...

So I'm a biochemistry major and most of my classes are biochem classes. I'm assuming that they will be added to my science GPA on my application, but will it be added to biology or chemistry?

cGPA and sGPA: 3.2, double major in engineering science and chemistry (four year breakdown: 3.433, 2.54, 2.412, 3.22, 3.588, 3.175, 3.60; I am planning to achieve a 3.7 in my last semester to continue the upward trend and hit the 3.2 cGPA. The drop off in my second and third semesters is due to...

I have an abnormal feeling of fear, I'm traumatized of pharmacy school. I'm scared of starting being in debt and failing out. I hate math. I don't know how I made it I have several withdraws and repeats. Is it doable? I'm so scared. I'm thinking of changing my major right after school begins ...

Hey guys, New to the forums and a bit on edge! Quick intro: exam 1/19, using EK and their 10 week study program, currently behind by 2 lectures (sigh. Working full time and was in school until a couple weeks ago). I'm doing well with my biology (scoring a scaled 127 on average for my 30 min...

Hello and thanks for viewing my first post. I'm 19 and attend the Community College of Rhode Island with a 3.9 GPA through 3 semesters (40 credits). I got accepted into TCU for next fall as a neuroscience major, and TCU has a matriculation rate of 80% into med school. I work 30 hours a week, but...

Hey everyone! I am a sophomore undergrad, and we start finals next week. After my freshman year, I ended with a 3.96 GPA and currently I have all As in my classes and have set myself up for a 4.0 if I do well on my exams. But the problem is, I am extremely worried about these exams (I haven't...

Okay, so I have to drop Chem I. its either drop it or get an F! I don't understand why this class is too hard :( I am a non-traditional student with a full time career but all I do in my spare time is study for chem. Even with a tutor, this class is super hard and by accident and just not...

Which science class did you get the worst grade in? Please vote using the poll.

Hi everyone so I was just wondering if its okay to claim AP lab credit for chemistry (I am taking the actual general chemistry courses). I'm from Texas and from looking at the Texas medical schools prerequisites, they do accept AP credit. However, when I ask my advisers if I should claim credit...

I just want to help people. I am in Pre Nursing because you don’t need advanced math skills, nursing dosage and you are done. I don’t want to be that nurse who regrets not going for their MD/DO, but if I know that my math skills won’t cut it or it’s too late to catch up on them, I can live with...

Hey there SDN, Due to its rigor and the "GPA killer factor", is it a bad idea to major in Chemistry for pre-med? I am 100% set on my goal of going to Med School and I want nothing else than to be a Doc. I was just accepted to the University of Texas at Ausin to study Psychology and pre-med (I...

Hey Everyone! I see a lot of people asking about how to "get in" to research as an undergrad, well fear not! Your good buddy RogueBanana has made a guide just for you! So Roguey, how do I find a spot as a research assistant? I'm glad you asked! 1- Ask A Professor So there are a lot of ways...

I'm applying next summer, and right now I have a 2.9 after graduating. I have Cs in both gen chems, as well as ochem I, then a B in ochem II and a C- in biochem. I'm enrolled in two gen chem classes right now at a CC, but is it worth retaking them? I have about 160 units since I changed my...

Hello everyone, I am a current Biochem. undergrad student and I got into this career just because I like chemistry. I am a junior now, and I still don't know what I want to do after my undergrad. I don't even know my options. I know this is a very vague and a stupid question, but can someone...

Can someone please explain this question to me on how they get the answer, I've read explanations but for some reason I am still confused and i feel dumb for asking this lol Which of the following electronic transitions in the hydrogen atom would involve an emission of a photon of the shortest...

I know this topic has been posted ad infinitum in these forums, and so much advice has been given. I've used the search function but something is still eating at me to the point where I'm now posting instead of lurking. I love psychology. Ever since I took AP psych in high school i've fell in...

First post here, so please cut me a little break. Long story short, I am currently taking my second semester of organic II with the lab. All my time is focused on this at the moment. I know I need to study for the DAT, and plan to within the upcoming months. My issue is, it has honestly been a...

I'll keep this short and sweet. I was informed that my introductory chemistry courses (3 classes) don't fulfill the general chemistry requirement. Now I'm faced with having to take another year of general chemistry courses in addition to the remainder of my pre-reqs (Physics, BioChem, O-chem...

My gen chem professor has been sent several plants from Zambia, Africa by an MD friend of his who wanted students to look into the plants' medicinal properties, specifically treating infertility. Unfortunately the plants have already been processed for research (some are in powder form). Also we...

So a little back story I am American and my husband is Canadian, we're living in the states right now and I'm getting my undergraduate here in the states in nursing. transferring my nursing credentials up there is no issue, dealing with the visa process is no big deal (as well as something for...

Hi everyone, SoI think I'm going to retake gen chem and orgo at my local community college, I really really REALLY need help in these courses and figured that I should just retake them while studying for the rest of the sections at home. (I have destroyer/TY jacobs notes/Feralis/Cliffs 3rd...

So I know that the averages are pretty low for the ACS finals (averages of about 50%), but I thought I could at least get a C+/B without any sort of curve. I just took the ACS Gen Chem I final today and definitely failed because I couldn't finish it on time. I did manage to bubble in D's for...

Hi I wanted to make this thread to see if people had content questions for the DAT. I usually learn best from teaching and was hoping people could ask me questions they have. That way, if I don't know the answer right away I can study it and reply, or further reinforce my knowledge! Shoot away...

DAT coming in about 13 days and it seems like my 2+ months of prep have gone to waste. Although comparatively, Im doing well on all the other sections, Im scoring 14 and 16 on Bootcamp chem portion. Ironically, chem has been the section I've been prepping for the most as I knew it was my...

First off, before I get into the breakdown of my studying, I just want to thank everyone for their helpful posts and keeping this forum thriving and helpful for many! I took the DAT July 27th, I want to help people that were just like me, reading through the detailed breakdowns of others to see...
