I received a C+ in Orgo II sophomore year (B in Orgo I and B in Biochem), which was right at the class average. My GPA really isn't that bad -- a 3.5 overall and BCPM -- and I have a good MCAT (35T), but the Orgo II grade is really going to sting and likely reduce my chances. I really wasn't prepared to take Orgo when I did; I had poor study habits that didn't improve until after my MCAT and was working, researching, and volunteering that quarter... I realize plenty of people have the same things going on and still do well in the class, so I'm at a loss as to how to explain my grade because those reasons really aren't excuses. My senior year GPA was over a 3.9, and I feel like if I retook Orgo now I would probably ace it, but it's in the past and there's nothing I can do about it now.
Anyone have a similar grade they had to explain?
