Three Semesters into college. Was stupid and went to one of the hardest colleges in my state. Also cosidering PA because honestly I've considered it in the past and my Pre PA gpa isn't as in the dump as my PT one

Overall GPA is 3.49-3.51 (3.1 fresh first semster, has been 3.75 since)

Exercise Phys major, so pretty much boned if I don't get in to some grad program. Unless if I change majors now.

Pre req is 3.12 for most programs, 3.4 for a different one in state
Pre Reqs
Bio 1 C+ (should probably retake this)
Chem 1 B
Anthro A
Gen Psyc B+
Orgo W (retaking this spring, had mono last year)
Anat and Phys 1 B+ (horribly choked on every single test... infuriating...)
Stats A
Abnormal B+


Left
Physics 1 and 2 (very difficult at my college)
Second Chem (feel confident about doing well since I have seen most of it before I withdrew)
Second Bio (should be an A. easier class at my college)
Second Anat and P (should get an A, underpreformed tremendously in 1)
Medical term (should be an A)
Developmental Psyc (super easy in my major department so probably another A)

Have worked as a rehab aide for 2 years, and am an EMT and CNA so letters and hours will not be an issue.

Also my school completely grade replaces, but I'm guessing PTCAS would count both grades correct?

I'm taking my 5 minute break in finals studying so I apologize if this doesn't make a ton of sense.

I wouldn't say you're screwed at all, but if I were you I would 100% retake that Bio 1 grade if you can. I don't see Chem 2 listed anywhere and it seems like you are banking on using Orgo instead, check with the schools you are applying to about this because I know many require chem 2 specifically.

Since you seem to have a lot left, I'm assuming you have a lot of time to get hours and all that fun stuff.

Best of luck
 
I think you're overreacting to some goals you set for yourself. Like you claim you chocked on tests in AP1 but came out with a B+. If I were you, I would space out your tougher classes. Take ONLY what you need to graduate (for example in my Exer-Sci degree, physics was not a requiement.) Look into your local community college and take left over tough classes there, it will be cheaper and less difficult. At this point it depends on where you want to go. If you just want to get into a PT school, your grades along with your side experience as a tech and EMT will look impressie to them.

You have the easiest college major available. Anyone with a pulse has the opportunity to get a 4.0 in ES. Quit whining a go kick some butt.
