My first year at UCLA I did extremely poorly. I ended up with a 2.9. I came from a small town in illinois and had an extremely difficult time adjusting and was very homesick and then both my grandparents (whom I was very close with) passed away within months of each other. I found it extremely difficult to focus on schoolwork and got a very low gpa. I'm a second year now and I should be finishing this year with a 3.3 gpa and my grades are going up. How much will my gpa hurt me when applying to medical school?
