In all seriousness, you're fine. Bring up your GPA as much as you can - ~3.5 would be minimum.

One C isn't going to kill your chances, but your 3.4 GPA might.

If one C brought down your GPA to a 3.4, you either have very few credits or you have been consistently borderline.

your fine, just try to raise your gpa by the time you apply.

Charlie Sheen has a better chance of making it back onto Two and a Half Men than you do of getting into medical school.




Just kidding. You're fine, but bring that GPA up.

It's not the end of the world. Do whatever you need to do to ensure it doesn't happen again.

what is your sGPA and....what year are you?

I got one C first semester my sophomore year that resulted in a 3.4-ish gpa for that semester

a year later my overall is currently a 3.72 and my science is a 3.70

[I was able to bounce back *fingers crossed for orgo 2 not killing me* but the impact it had on my gpa is ridiculous...literally my science GPA would be a 3.81 if I hadn't taken that class]

1 A + 1 B kinda cancel each other out.

Think of a C as just 2 B's. Get 2 A's and cancel that sucker out.

Agreed.

The op has over 100 posts... I know that's not a lot but for having been here this long he should know his dreams are not done for...

I really hope you're a troll.

 

[blue0rchid]

oh no, there's no way you can get into med school now OP. Look into post bac or graduate degree...

Your MD dream is over. Time to consider other careers like hamburger flipper and janitorial services...🙄

Secretly this mistake was eating at me, but I didn't want to say anything.😀

He's obviously trying to be funny with his feigned poor grammar and incorrect use of punctuation marks. It's not a very good attempt.

I had 4 C's in undergrad and still got into medical school. However, I don't think that is typical.
