Hello, I'm sure this is a common situation posted on these boards, but I need advice to give myself some peace of mind. I am a electrical engineering graduate and did fairly well as a student (graduated with a 3.69) .
Anyway, I want to pursue medical school, ideally a M.D. program. Unfortunately I took bio recently since it was the only pre-req I haven't completed. I messed up and got a B and C+ in bio1 and bio2 respectfully. My BCMP is 3.61 and have a 3.63 overall now (compared to 3.69 before). Right now I am studying for mcats and trying my best to do really well on the bio section. My question is should I be worried ? Additionally, I going to the NIH soon and going to be in there post-bacc program for 1-2 years, so I was thinking of possibly taking upper level bio courses such as biochem and molecular bio while I am there, but even if I recieve an A in these courses I will go up to around 3.65ish I believe.
So anyway, my question is should I be worry and I did I royally screw myself ? Should I bother with a retake ? Should I take upper level bio coursework ? ugh...I have been stressing out because of this. Please help....any suggestions are much appreciated.
