First, my gpa is 3.58/4.0 at CUNY hunter. my only mistake was that I got CR(Credit) on Bio2.

I took Bio1 at CC and got A and tried to retake Bio1 at 4-year-college at Cuny at Hunter, but got C+. and I took Bio2 at Hunter and got CR and re-took Bio2 again but got C+...Hunter's bio classes were hard for me. i don't know. whenever I took finals i messed up though I did well on midterms.

Other prereqs are good. Gen. chem 1&2 and Orgo1&2 and Biochem are all 'A's

I am taking A&P course now and expecting A

Do you think I should retake Bio1 and 2 again in another college?
If you were me, what would you do?

Why did you retake Bio2? I think your CC classes were easier. You should retake, but if you don't do good this time around for the third time, it will be hard.

i don't think you NEED to retake it, if you search there's a thread started by doc toothache which breaks down the requirements by dental schools. There are a few which will require that all pre-requisite courses be taken at a 4 year university, but many/most will accept a few cc grades.

again, go search for that thread (too lazy to do it for you lol)

now if you think you can retake it and get A's, then do it. But having already taken it and not done stellar, maybe bio is not your forte??

Thanks a lot for your comment. Do you recommend me to take more upper bio classes?
