i've decided to post on here after consulting a few friends. i haven't been able to get the feedback i had originally hoped for, so this is my last resort before i actually pick up my phone and begin calling some med schools.
here's my situation:
i've gotten B+s in chem 1, chem 2, physics 1, and physics 2, a B in gen bio 1, and Cs in both orgo 1 and orgo 2. as you can see, i haven't taken gen bio 2 because it is not required of my major (biotechnology). so my first question is, should i take gen bio 2? many schools list gen bio 2 as being one of their prereqs.
also, i am prepping for the mcat this summer (test date is july 13). that gives me a solid two months to go insane. however, i am considering retaking orgo 1 and orgo 2 (just the lecture). would any of you recommend doing so? i feel like earning Cs in those courses are going to hurt my chances of getting in. i don't know if i should just dedicate 110% of my energy to the mcat and take gen bio 2 this summer if i need to. i'm sure some of you are thinking "here we go again, more stupid questions," but i have talked to a few people on this matter and i am not getting any useful answers.
thanks!
