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.
