I need some advice. I just finished up a difficult Anatomy class where I'll most likely be getting a C... do I still have a shot? Where do I go from here?
Background on me: I'm a non-traditional student, changing careers. I graduated several years ago with a 3.0 oGPA and ~2.7 sGPA. I'm doing postbacc classes while working full time. So far I've taken 3 classes all with A's, and took 2 more this semester. At this point it's looking like a C from my Anatomy class and A- from my other class. This C destroys the upward trend that I had for my GPA.
Why did I get a C? Long story short, this was a nightmare class for me - only very difficult multiple choice tests to determine my grade. After the 2 midterms, I asked my professor how to do better on the final, and though I took his advice to heart and took several days off of work to study, this was not enough. I walked in confident, having done tons of review and thought I was ready, but I got tripped up on small details on the exam.
My DAT: 21 AA / 21 TS / 22 PAT.
Does anyone have any opinion on if I still have a shot and if so, what I can do to strengthen my application?
