Hi everyone. probably being a bit neurotic but I am about to get a BC in o chem lab which will be my second BC after analytical chemistry. For reference I am a second year and my other math science grades are as follows. Gen chem A, Ochem Honors B, Ochem2 A, Calc 1 AB, Calc 2 B, pharmacology 1 A, Bio B. Other grades are mostly A's including 15 science directed study credits with an A. Appreciate the responses

You're ok. Those classes are hard. Try to get A's in your upper level courses, and I think you will be fine. Your other grades look fine, you're probably gonna be ok. Ochem lab is rough, I'm taking it right now.

What the hell is a BC grade? Is that like a B-? Where do colleges come up with this ****?

It’s between a C+ and a B- gpa wise so A=4 AB=3.5 B=3 etc

Nope, not at all

unsure how this is converted to AMCAS GPA but the important thing is that your overall and science GPAs stay as high as possible. If you're at 3.5 or higher for both then you're still OK provided the MCAT goes well for you.
