I graduated and returned to my college this semester to start retaking Biochem (F), Thermodynamics (F) and Differential Equations (D) along with upper science courses. Thermo and Diff EQ aren't required for medical school but obviously count toward my science GPA, except the math class. After this semester I was going to retake the classes I got C's in: Calc 2, Genetics, Chem 2. (I was told to start with the worst grades first and work my way up.)
Since grade forgiveness is no longer a thing, should I forget about classes that aren't pre-reqs (thermo, diff EQ, calc 2) and also forget about redoing any classes I got a C in? Should my focus only be on upper level science courses and then shoot for an SMP? My goal school is MSUCOM since that is where I graduated from. Any advice is appreciated since I only have about 2 more days to adjust my schedule for this current semester!!
