did they put any contingencies on your acceptance. you would think B- and < would cause concern
 
well they said that i need to keep a 3.4 avg and above....but for the summer...my avg will be a 3.79.......i just thought that med schools look at orgo and biochem the most....i got A's in both orgos......stupid MCAT messed me up in biochem 😡 !!! i just dont want em gettin upset....i already sent my deposit to hold me seat...

if you're near graduation and in cruise mode, i wouldn't sweat it. maybe you can ask the teacher for extra credit to boost you to an A-
 
we dont have A-.....its just A, B+, B, C+, C, D, F.....and im at 97 crs...with 2 more semesters to go...a B+ is a 3.5 at my school
 
You're gonna get rejected...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................B+??!! don't worry about it man...you are stressin' way too much. My friend had a D in Biochem following her acceptance to UCSD SOM and they still let her in. Go party and relax...

B+ is pretty good, in your case it is a 3.5 which is the average matriculating GPA. Since you sound like you rarely get B's it sounds like you are making an issue out of a nonissue.

dude, stop worrying. You're in medical school, they're not throwing you out over a B+ in biochem..lol

Just relax, because once you start med school then you'll have what to complain about in terms of work and grades

Ah, once again a B+ is a 3.5 which is the average matriculating GPA. Fear not.
