I'm a non-trad (pre-DO) who's taking pre-reqs at a local CC. I'm enrolled in Gen Chem 2 and Biochem for the summer term.
I think I'll get an A in Gen Chem 2... but I'm really, really struggling with Biochem -- probably because I enrolled in it without having taken the pre-reqs (Gen Chem 2 and Orgo 1). I'm pretty sure I can skate by with a B (the CC doesn't have B+ or B- grades), but I have no shot at an A.
What's better: (1) Taking a "W" in a CC course and then re-taking it for an A after completing the proper pre-reqs, or (2) getting a B the first time around?
Background: 25 years old; 3.6 undergrad cGPA; political science degree; mediocre low-level science grades (B+, B+, C+) from undergrad institution.
Thank you!
