Hi everybody,
I am new here this is my first post. I know everyone gets questions like mine all the time so I appreciate any help. I am in my second year of college at a junior college. My grades are decent and I have an overall gpa of 3.3. This is because of and f in a 1 unit P.E. course my freshman year and an F in a philosophy course this semester. The F in philosophy was a result of first time online classes (never again) and I missed one of the exams. I am inteligent, had above a 4.0 in high school and had a full ride to University of California Davis but got married and divorced at the age of 17 and did not go. I have been working about 40 hours a week in construction but now will be working less and will definitely be lifting my GPA. My science GPA will easily be over a 3.5 if I continue doing well (such as a 3.7 or so) and so will my other grades. I plan on transferring to UC Davis after junior college. Ultimately, did I screw up my chances for an allopathic medical school? If I still do well on my MCATS and have a good GPA will some lower tier schools overlook the F's since they are not science related and should I bother retaking the courses to replace the F on my school GPA? Sorry for the long post, once again any help would be appreciated.
P.S. Would I have a good shot at a DO school?
