I got a c+ in ORGO 1 and a C in ORGO 2. I have considered retaking them but I can't at my University. They consider a passing grade as good enough and will not allow a retake because I am useing their financial aid program. Of course there is a wonderful Community College not to far from here and they offer both courses on an accelerated basis. There is also another University not to far away that may allow me to take this on there campus as a non degree seeker.
Should I even retake them at all? I don't have stellar GPA (3.4 Cum w/o grade forgiveness) but considering that these are pre recs it could be a good thing to have As in these classes on my record. I predict my graduating GPA to be about 3.5 ish with BCMP GPA not to far behind that. So SHould I retake or just say screw it and move on taking upper levels as originally planned?
 
honestly it depends on the med school you want to go to. but since you took orgo already you should know what to expect, so i would recommend retaking it... in addition to taking other upper division courses. you really don't want that to creep up on you during the med school interview
