Hey guys
So I finally realized just how behind I am after finally taking a look at where I stand after 2 years of college. I had to take this past semester off and because of confusion at my school I will also have to take next semester off as well and could only get into some gen ed classes (english courses) and an EMT-B course. After 2 years, the only pre med classes I have taken are Bio 1 and 2 and Calc I and II. My overall GPA is an atrocious 2.7. Basically I spent the last 2 years ruining my future and not applying myself at all.
I only have 4 semesters and 2 summers left to take 2 physics classes, 4 chem classes, as well as finish up my biology major (6 more courses) and complete my gen ed requirements.
So my understanding at this point is that I am completely screwed. Is there any chance of getting into med school (I do have the ability to do well in all these courses I have just havent applied myself up until this point)? Does it make more sense to go to a foreign med school? Should I wait to take the MCATs and apply to med school after graduation. I am completely lost at this point. Any information on just how screwed I am and if there is anything I can do to mend the situation would be greatly appreciated.
