Is there a considerable upward trend with your GPA?

If not, you might be better off just waiting 'til next year. Your retake is fairly late in the cycle, and a 17AA/2.9 GPA is going to be extremely difficult to overcome. I wouldn't spend my money on applying to a ton of schools just yet.

Some subjects have an upward trend, like physics and organic, some others no because the courses get harder each semester. I was thinking maybe to apply to at least a few schools this year just to apply, I already have my letters and my transcripts sent out.

Sadly, that's kind of the idea--you're not only supposed to do better, but you're supposed to do better in harder courses. 😳
