prepa52 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Hi I'm a pre-pa student. I'm in my senior year at the moment and I'm in the midst of doing interviews for PA schools. Out of the 6 programs, only 2 require Orgo 1. I'm taking the course now and trying to balance flying to interviews and preparing for each one. I have a low C in orgo 1 lecture and an A in Lab at the moment. I have a history of one C in bio 2 from sophomore year. I explained thoroughly in my application that I experienced a loss in my family at that time and my mother was going through chemo. I'm extremely nervous to finish this course with a C and submit my transcript to a school after they accept me and they reject me because of doing so bad in the course. I calculated my GPA and if I get a C in lecture my science GPA will go from 3.6 to 3.47. My question is do you think I should just try and push through and maybe end up with a C or drop the class and get my second W on my transcript and just forget about those two programs? (My first W was bio 2 lab which i retook and got an A). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It matters. You won't get accepted into that school then that requires the Organic chemistry. Im sure that poster meant another program that doesn't require it. Also if you need a B or above for a school that requires it, you won't get accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two programs require a C or above and a GPA above a 3.0. So you think If I receive an acceptance and submit a C they wouldn't take away my acceptance because I met the minimal requirement ?
