I know most people are hearing back their decisions about summer internship positions. I have been dealing with a lot of personal and academic problems this semester and as such didn't have to time to apply to most of them. Im a junior at a four year university with a crappy GPA of 2.85 due to depression and family issues. Im not looking for sympathy or anything, but I want realistic opinions on landing these internships - 1) I want to know if its too late for them to consider me. 2) My level competitiveness.

Im interested in applying to Merck. There are a few internships that still have one - two spots open. I know im cutting it very close, but when I look at the requirements they mention anything about GPA though they do mention they prefer candidates with extensive research experience. I have a lot of research experience under my belt but I am curious if anyone knows how Merck actually works and if I am still eligible to apply there since their website is pretty confusing about it…...
 
So no one knows anything about Merck?
 
I'm kind of late in the game too.

Anyone know of any summer internship/research programs that are still accepting applications?
