MD & DO Academic dismissal from Undergrad studies

I was dismissed from my university a year ago for poor grades
Current GPA is 0.96
I retook my general Chem at a local Community college along with Physics and general ed. courses
My advisor is telling me that I've ruined my chances for a US med school; even with a post bacc or a Master's, my undergrad will be a red flag. Is she right? Can I get an upward trend going from this point on to my upper div courses and hopefully redeem myself?

From what I've read, DO schools will take ur GPA for ur most recently taken courses so if you retake all the courses u didn't do well in and show them that u can bounce back I think you have an amazing shot at DO but you will have to work really hard and do well on your MCAT of course 🙂

All the best!

Your advisor is wrong. You will need to start over and fix all your deficits that prevented you from succeeding.

Retake all F/D/C science coursework.
