I got Cs in gen chem I & II, a D in bio I and this semester I got a C in Ochem and Bio II. Do I have any chance, my gpa is at a 2.3 right now. Help me please, do I drop pre-med, I don't have a chance?

Retake the classes. If you're serious about medicine, then this is your wake up call.
1) Figure out what went wrong. This could be not studying enough, not studying properly, or incorrect time management. You need to make time otherwise chances you'll succeed are slim.
2) Retake the classes. DO schools forgive your bad grades by fully replacing them in GPA calculation. Your C's and D's can become brand new A's if you utilize step 1.
3) Kill the MCAT. Don't worry about applying asap. Focus on your grades and prerequisites before worrying about the MCAT.

Yes, you have a chance, but you need to turn things around and start aceing things. Go see your school's education or learning center STAT!
