I'm a student in the BS/MD PLME at Brown. I've been having a horrid time with my academics so far, having finished my 4th semester at a 3.31 overall GPA. This past semester I failed organic chemistry (per Brown's policy, this shows up on my internal transcript but not on my external transcript). So I'm going to take it again at Brown, but I want to know 1) what tips you have for excelling in orgo; 2) how, as a BS/MD student having this no-credit on my transcript will affect my residency applications; 3) is this a predictor that I'm not cut out for medicine? I mean there are so many other kids in the PLME who seem to be doing waayyyy better than I have been, and there are non PLMEs who also are. This is all I know and all I've ever wanted to do with my life. How do I turn this around?! Someone please help a student with absolutely no self-confidence left
Just to clarify, I'm not kicked out of the program, so this is definitely a question about my future. Thanks for the help.
