low gpa

Being neurotic because I haven't heard anything good from schools yet (was complete over a month ago) and I just would like to know if there's any other schools you recommend adding to my list, considering my stats aren't competitive. I am unsure of a few since I'm OOS for them. Current school...

A couple years ago I was dismissed from my university for poor grades My GPA at that time was 0.96 I retook a few courses and came back to the University after spending a few semesters at community college. But I'm still struggling to keep up my grades. I've posted a copy of my grades and they...

Hi everyone! I submitted my secondaries very early on, and have not heard anything back with regards to interviews. I'm starting to think that my list may have been too top-heavy (MCAT 521, cGPA 3.6, sGPA 3.5), I applied to mostly top 20 schools. Do y'all think it would be worth it for me to...

Hi guys I'm just starting to look into PT. To be honest I was planning on attending PA school but after 2 years to applying I'm starting to look into other professions I find intriguing. With my stats its nearly impossible to be accepted into PA schools ( found that out the hard way). Before...

Hi, I am going to be a third year student. My overall gpa is only 2.8 and I failed two math classes (I have to repeat in next summer). I know my grade is too bad and I even have trouble in applying pa program. But anyone think I should still try MCAT and see what’s my grade will be? I am also...

BLUF: Low GPA, considering grad school or DIY post-bacc at CC... I'm a 27 y/o female, military vet (currently deployed, again) trying to apply to medical school in a few years. I'm a USMA grad with a low GPA (2.9) in Mechanical Engineering; planning to take my P.E. in April. I'm transitioning...

Attached is a screenshot of my undergrad grades. I still have to get through virology, anatomy, organic 1&2, and physics 1&2. I have a ton of bad bio grades because my first two years of college I was lazy and didn't take it as seriously as I should have. Other experience includes ~2000 hours...

1. GPA: Undergrad: B.S. Pure Mathematics: 3.42 Cumulative, 3.2 Science. Upward trend. Those upper level proofs classes were not nice to my science GPA. Sucks because C's are good grades in those classes, but I know adcoms won't see it that way. I got my act together senior year and made the...

I've tried to figure out what chances I have for in-state, but I'm having trouble calculating what my odds are, given my significant post-bacc work, leadership experience, and job history. Anyone have any ideas how a solid year and a half of 4.0 post-bacc influences things like lizzyM and WARS...

So I recently graduated. Ended with a 3.74 GPA and a 3.89 science GPA but that doesn't really matter except for the fact that it shows that I have a strong upward trend. I retook a few classes, transferred after my freshmen year, took a lot of college classes in h.s. which came back to haunt me...

Hi. I'm a 18 yr-old, URM, pre-med, Biochem major at a community college. I'm planning on using IGETC to satisfy my pre-reqs for a UC. I enrolled as a freshman 2017 and took 3 classes the first semester. I failed 2 and Ace'd one. The F's were in Math and Art. I failed because I had personal and...

Hi everyone, I graduated with a BS in Mechanical engineering and a minor in Biomedical engineering. I did finish the prerequisites for medical school, however I graduated with a 3.2 GPA. Low for medical school standards. I was unsure of applying for medical school during my undergraduate...

Hello, fellow SD'ers. So, I'm currently an undergrad/masters student whos applying MD/ Ph.D. this coming cycle and I was wondering if I could get some help/opinions. So I go to a relatively average school nothing with real name recognition. While doing my undergrad I kinda goofed and ended up...

Hey y’all, Do we have an underdawgs thread for 2018-2019 yet?! Non-trad here, and I’ve been ready to get on board since 2015 and my application cycle is finally HERE. You guys have been an inspiration to many. Good luck to everyone applying!

I have waited to post for a long time, but I need advice more than ever. I started undeclared at community college for 2 years. After I transferred to a 4 year state school my dad passed away unexpectedly. I wasnt able to handle it, had a bad year and failed out. I got readmitted after a year...

Hey guys so I’m finally graduating next summer with a really bad overall science GPA. I’m almost too embarrassed to post it. Let’s just say it’s right under a 3.0. I had my difficulties sophomore and junior year which led to the downfall of my otherwise great GPA. I know there is not a way to...

I would really appreciate some advice on this because my advisor is not super clear. I am an international student that studied in the US, and want to know if there is any way to make up a bad grade in a pre-req that I have already taken. I have already graduated, so can't do the "A+ in Biochem...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum so forgive me if this isn't the right place to post here. Basically, I'm wondering what my chances are of getting into med school. I went to UCSD, graduated in '16 with a 2.5 cGPA (sGPA is probably somewhere around there too) majoring in Physiology and...

My science GPA is 2.95 and overall 3.2 as a chemistry and spanish major and I have not taken the MCAT yet. My plan is to raise my science GPA to at least a 3.0 taking post-bacc classes, take the MCAT, then apply to special masters programs. I have everything else including research...

So I just graduated high school in May. During my last two years, I did dual enrollment full time and messed up my college gpa bad. I have like a 3.09 cumal. average. I have 4 years ahead of me in regular undergrad. I am interested in applying to both MD and DO schools. What should I do? I...

I have a low undergrad GPA of 3.04 (including retakes, but not including some better scoring cc courses I took so I'm not sure what ADEA will calculate it as). Apart from my GPA I have great community service, leadership roles, a good story/PS, LORs - all of that. My application is done but I...

Hey everybody, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on schools to apply to. I was a previous engineering major and kind of overloaded myself on prereqs early on and screwed up my GPA a bit. I think my GRE and grade trend are something I can emphasize so I want to target schools that...

Hey Guys, New to this thread here! I was looking for some advice on how to possibly have a chance at a DO acceptance. I am a rising senior If all goes well, I'll probably graduate with a 3.25-3.3 cGPA. I know. Pretty low. Looking at all the forums so far, it looks like a post bacc would be a...
