Hello SDN,
I'm feeling a little down on myself and just wondering what others would recommend, or if anyone has had the same experience.
I currently have a BS in Exercise Science, but have an average Cum GPA (2.9) and Pre-Req GPA (2.8). I know how competitive DPT school is so I decided to not apply right away, and retake a few classes at a local CC. I decided to retake A&P but ended up having a below average teacher, who I feel didn't know well enough to be teaching this class. I ended up getting a C... Again...
I'm not a terrible student, I just had low motivation as an early undergrad, and didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. I found PT late in my college career and rushed to pack in my Pre-Reqs during summers and overloading my late year semesters, (btw if anyone is thinking of doing that, I do not recommend it). So my grades were not as high as I could have had them.
I guess my question is, do I keep trying to improve pre-req's or just think about doing something else. I'm just feeling discouraged by getting a repeating grade. Part of me feels I'm wasting a lot of time climbing this ladder of becoming a DPT especially since I'm not moving forward in my own eyes.
