Hi all, I am going into my senior year at my state university. I was dismissed at the end of my sophomore year for poor academic performance (1.6 GPA, I know how bad it is, I couldn't handle college) and went to a community college for a year and a half after. I retook physics 1 and 2 and biology. I took lots of GE's and took anatomy, organic chem 1 and 2 and both labs. I earned A's in all of these classes except for a B in the second o chem lab (87.6%). I got readmitted into my state university and retook 2 classes to earn an A and a B. I'm more confident that I can do well now and I'm planning on earning my bs within the next year. I'm full time starting this semester. I haven't taken biochem, molgen, or any of my other upper level major courses. I'm just wondering what my chances really are. I may barely earn a 3.0 if at all when I graduate, but I'll have an upward trend. Any advice for what I should do to increase my chances for getting into dental or med school would be appreciated. Also, I'd like to know what to expect so I can prepare myself for the worst. I realize the position I'm in, and I don't want to waste my time going after something that I won't be able to be even though I've realized the field I want to be in. I'm also considering pharmacy, but I'd rather be a dentist or a doctor. Thanks in advance for all of your help, I'm in need of guidance.
