Regardless of good intent I realize this may read mean spirited, but: Someone who struggles that much with prerequisites may not be a strong enough student to do well in an offshore program and step exams is the issue.
OP has to really figure out if continuing along this path (with or without major study habit changes) makes sense. I realize everyone thinks they'll study harder, smarter, get lucky, had a rough month, were homesick, had their period, etc.. but prerequisites are not really that bad compared to medical school content.
PA school, or whatever, is secondary and not for everyone. That being said, I've met tons of 3rd year medical students who wished they'd gone the PA route so things like starting a family and having an income weren't delayed forever.
