Yeah I actually know somebody that got into UCSF with a D+!!! Obviously they retook, got an A and did extremely well for the rest of their undergrad

He went off in 2008, you might have known him his name was Yazhua Aniti.

Hmmm. The name doesn't ring any bells. But thanks for the info!

I got a C in gen chem I and was accepted to a top 15. I'm assuming that since it was my first semester it may have been less egregious than if it was later on in undergrad. A C in a prereq is not necessarily a killer if you show that you learned from your mistakes and were able to pull it together down the road.
