Well, I just got my grades, everything pretty much as expected...but one point really miffed me...I got a C in the "Fundamentals of Life Science I Lab" ...it's the introductory biology lab (i had tested out of the lectures a couple years back with AP tests, but had to take the stupid labs this last semester in order to graduate)...will adcoms really care at this point? I wanted to smash my head against the wall every second I was in that lab class (the first day, we spent 30 minutes going over the scientific method...-twice-) and my TA was a vindictive grad student from Columbia, bitter about teaching the class, being at that university, and being a grad student period.
Ironic thing is, I got a B+ in the Life Sci II lab (I also took that this term) and a B in Immunology lab (took that as well)...I had a 21 hour schedule incl. immunology + lab, biochem, physical chem, biology writing intensive, 1st aid, medical terminology (heh, easy A), so I decided to put my priorities straight. I ended up getting B+s in all my classes except physical chem and med. terminology (both As) and immunology lab (B) but...ack...I didn't want to end my last semester with a bunch of Bs :/ Because I'm still waiting for interview invites from UCincinnati and OSU, and I thought it might've been because of my GPA.
