Hey SDN, me again.
Here's my original post http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?t=686570,
updated info with C+ (ochem 1), A- (math), and A+ (writing course)-1st semester as transfer student, so this is my current gpa, ignoring my other school's grades. Pretty horrible for science gpa. I am asian btw.
extracurriculars: volunteer in ER at hospital on hiatus, licensed emt (am in school's emergency squad)...not much but am planning to look for research.
It seems getting an A in ochem II for me will be rare, unless I make hundreds on the 3rd exam and final (80 on 1st exam, 2nd exam might be dropped). However I am still gonna strive to get the highest possible grade.
But if my plan should fail,
Would all my chances of getting into a med school in ny be completely destroyed? Should I give up the premed track entirely? Or is DO and Caribbean schools my only hope now? I understand that biochem will be a factor also, that I need more extracurriculars, and that I must continue to strive for the best possible grade still.
Once again, all other courses are going well, except for this one. There's something wrong with me 🙁
Thank you all for your patience once again. I greatly appreciate all your responses.
