Just wondering if I have any realistic chance. When finished High school had 2 equal passions music especially drumming (but play 7 instruments) .or medicine. Couldn't choose, joined school, 3.63 freshman year but heart still divided. Continued with the band side by side, Got some amazing opportunities and experience, dropped school for warp tour after 1 yr. after few mos band broke, and I sort of broke with it as I had put my heart and soul in it literally with hours of practice every single day. Back to school x 1 more yr, still was not certain, dropped again to pursue in another band which unfortunately had the same fate. Finally decided to pursue school but to make matters worse, ended being on the wrong side of the law and got arrested 1 days before semester finals, couldn't sit the exams, ended with F and a generic felony .Was a non prescription CS but CS part is not in the conviction.
However that became my wake up call. Since that day turned my life completely around, maintaining a >3.75 GPA every sem but cummulative is destroyed with that 1 sem of Fs. Advisor is working to try and get that unfortunate semester dropped, will have excellent letters of recommendation from school professors, the judge has even said that she will consider early termination of probation and an expungement if I can get admission to a med school. She may even consider it depending on my MCAT score if I seem to have a reasonable chance of acceptance to one. I am working with a goal of 36+ score, I have research, I don't have an organized volunteer work to put on paper but through out school, I have spent 100s of hours tutoring students voluntarily without any expectations and many can testify to that. My Advisor said this is actually better because this has been done without any intent. I have 100+ hrs of shadowing.
With all this, do I have a chance ??? or am I doomed for ever???
Sorry for the long post
