Okay so I am going to be a rising junior as a premed student.
I have completed General Biology, General Chemistry, and Human Physiology for which I got A's. I took Organic Chemistry this summer. It was the worst experience ever but anyways for Organic I, I got an A-, but for Organic II I got a B-. I am registered to take Physics junior year.
Should I be concerned about this B-. My overall science GPA is running at 3.64 with this B- included, but because this is an important prerequisite how is a B- in Organic Chemistry II looked by medical school admissions?
And for those of you who say taking Organic in the summer is easier.... its in fact the hardest thing you can do especially if your course lasts 3 weeks and you have to memorize countless reactions in 2-4 days before the next exam. I know I could have done better in the normal academic year for Orgo II.
But anyways how is a B- looked at in general. Its not a C, but not far from it so I dont know what to make of it.
Any suggestions will help. Please be honest.
