Hey everyone,
I'm a senior Bio major at a top 5 liberal arts college and I have somewhere between a B and B+ average. There is MAJOR grade deflation at my school and no matter how hard I try and how many hours I study, I seriously can't get past a B/B+ in all my classes (science and non-science).
I wish I could explain my low GPA as being due to a bad semester, but I just have a long string of B's on my transcript. I'm not complaining or anything - I just don't know how I'd explain this at an interview. I'm planning to enroll in a post-bac program next year to boost my GPA, so I'm not worried about grade rehabilitation. I just don't know how I can explain my lackluster undergraduate record. Also, I haven't taken the MCAT yet if that helps.
Any thoughts? I'd greatly appreciate your input, thanks!
