What are/were your pre req grades?

[doccody]

Hey everyone, just kind of curious to see what everyone elses pre-req grades were or are. I'm only a freshman right now, with am A- in Chem I, and hopfully an A in Bio but currenly have a B-.

So what were yours?

I did very well thus far.

 

[mynamehere]

umm.
Chem I and II- C
Chem I and II lab - B+?
Orgo I - C
Bio I and lab - B+
Bio II - C-
Bio II lab - B+
Phys I and II - A
Me - wtF-

Hey, you're pretty good at physics. Were you especially interested in the material or???

This is a wonderful opportunity to toot my own horn...

Bio I: A+
Bio II: A+ (if I manage a 10% on the final )
Chem I: A (if I get at least a 65 on the final)
Phys I: A+ (if I get a 55 on the final)

Congrats!! Those are some awesome grades!!

Congrats!! Those are some awesome grades!!

Don't worry, I was clever enough to destroy my own BCPM gpa in high school 5 years ago.
One math class. 5 credit hours. Grade: C

(So basically almost 2 classes worth of c's...)
...I plan on writing my entire PS about it: overcoming [academic] "diversity".


Chaaa CHING!

Seems like your finals aren't worth much. If I got a 10% on any of my finals, even if I had a 100 average, I'd probably end up with a B- or something

Here are mine:

Bio I: A-
Bio II: currently have an A
Chem I: A-
Chem II: currently have an A

People with alotta good grades up in here!

 

[doccody]

See I'm hoping for a curve in my Bio Class. Currenly have a 87% I think, but I don't hink I did too well on the exam today. Didn't study as much as I should have but I'm to blame for that. So Hopefully she ends up curving it or I could be in some trouble already just starting out lol

A lot of the professors (at least at my school) seem to like to keep the class average around 70%.

...So if your class average is significantly below that maybe you'll get lucky.

 

[Frazier]

All As.

You're going to Southwestern -- I would expect nothing less.

 

[orthomyxo]

The chem final is worth 25% of our grade.
The physics: 20%
The bio: 15%

I think I can miss so much in bio and physics because I benefited greatly from the curves for the early exams.

Chem is more straight forward with no curves really. yuck.

Lucky! None of my classes were/are curved. My Bio II professor has mentioned that he might scale our tests, but I doubt it since all of the averages have been 70+. Other than that, all my classes work by a "you get what you get" policy.

Ok... I ended up with 5 acceptances, first time applicant, so I am happy to share my less than stellar grades to give hope to future applicants with similar less than stellar grades:

Chem I & II and labs - A's
O Chem I & II - A+ & A
O Chem lab - C
Bio I & II - B, B+
Bio labs - C, B-
Phys I & II (combined lecture/lab) - C, C+
Microbio - A-
Biochem - A

Gen Chem was easy for me, but in O Chem I worked my butt off for those grades. And apparently I'm no good at labs. I probably should not be a pathologist.

 

[FlowRate]

A's in most, A-'s in a couple, just like everything else in college, lol. This semester may not end up as hot, but it's alright. There's fudge room thanks to previous semesters =). A few B's won't make me cry haha.

 

[psharma02]

Calc I - 3.9
Calc II - 3.9
Bio I - 3.8
Bio II - 4.0
Ochem I - 3.7
Ochem II - 3.7
Gen Chem I - 3.2
Gen Chem II - 3.6 (stupid simple mistakes)
Gen Chem III - 3.7
Phys - N/A (yet)

 

[unhappytnt]

Bio I: A
Calc I: A
Chem I: C+
Bio II: B
Calc II: B
Chem II: C

Needless to say I will be retaking Gen Chem next semester.

 

[jkhanh]

G Chem I A
G Chem II A
Bio I A
Bio II A
O Chem I B - was so close to an A, but I did horrible on the final
Phys I A

I'm currently taking physics 2 and organic chem 2 and project a B in both classes =(

Hey everyone, just kind of curious to see what everyone elses pre-req grades were or are. I'm only a freshman right now, with am A- in Chem I, and hopfully an A in Bio but currenly have a B-.

So what were yours?

Cell Structure/Function B+
Genetics and Molecular Bio A
Bio Labs B+/A-
Gen Chem I/II A-/B+
Gen chem labs A-/A-
Physics AP credit
Orgo I/II/II B+/C-/B+ (retook second semester, there's a moderately good reason for C-)
Org Labs B+/A

Also, main reason for responding: Check before you walk down stairs to make sure they continue all the way down!

Bio I A-
Bio II A
Bio 1 and 2 lab A
Chem 1 A

Physics 1 A-
Physics 2 A (if i keep up what im doing)
Phys 1+2 Lab A
Ochem 1 A-

How did you do on your MCATs, if you dont mind me asking. Congrats on the acceptances by the way.

Thanks! I think my MCAT score definitely helped my application: P11/V12/B13/Q
