So I did all of this a little backwards than everyone else. I finished my major in the first 2 years of college (in Hindi and South Asian Studies) and then decided to be pre-med, so started to take the science classes. I had basically a 4.0 for the first 2 years of college...and then kind of got rocked my first semester junior year. I was taking Chemistry, Chem lab, Anatomy, Hindi, and a Public Health Course. Not to mention, I started a new job and worked literally 40 hours a week. My question is, I got mostly B's in these classes (to be exact, B in Chem lab, B- in Chem, B+ in Anatomy, B+ in Public Health, and A in Hindi).
It's not that I didn't understand the material, but I simply was working so many hours with 16 credits of class...Will this be possible to bring up? I'm extremely worried Currently I'm in physics and Orgo and am doing really well, because my job is requiring wayyyy less hours (thank god).
So basically, my question (sorry about the rambling!!) is that although this is low for one semester, do I have a chance to bring it up a considerable amount, and will it be enough of an excuse that I had to work 40 hours? (The other issue was that I was severely ill at the end of the term and had to take 2 finals AFTER winter break....didn't work out so well)
