I have 3 C's Now. I got a B+ in BIO and i have been studying for Organic Chem and Bio 2 this summer. Should i start backtracking after this semester or re-take these classes in the summer?

It really is hard to say. How many credit hours do you have? What is your current GPA? You have to take all that into consideration and calculate what your new GPA would be if you were to repeat those classes. If you have a lot of credit hours already, then it might not bring your GPA up a lot. But if it would help, then it would be a good idea to do so. I didn't retake any of my C's. Instead, I took higher courses and tried to do better in them. I think it makes you a more well-rounded candidate, but that's just my opinion.

i think you're not competitive. thats just my HO.

But it's ok. I got C's in GChem too. Just get As and Bs from here on like me and you will be fine.

I think you'll be fine if you do good from here on out. There's more than just grades that are considered. Work in a pharmacy, volunteer, rock your PCATs. You still have a shot.
