<p>I did bad in gen chem my freshmen yr and got a C+ both semester and am now in orgo though and have an a-....how will med schools look at this. It is hard to recover from two c+'s but im trying my hardest. Will the good grade in orgo help a little bit? Any advice??</p>
<p>I've heard of people that made a C get in to med school.....</p>
<p>who got C's in science classes but is still in med school? THIS GUY <points at="" self=""></points></p>
<p>Congrats Bigred. Which classes did you get Cs in?</p>
<p>Organic Chem II, Organic Chem I Lab, Psychology of Personality (had already been accepted when I got that)</p>
<p>If I remember correctly, Bigredmed destroyed the MCAT, so I think that might have compensated for those C's.</p>
<p>I would not use the word destroyed...did well, or did better than most: yes.</p>
<p><whispering> BDM did even better than I did</whispering></p>
<p>How about extracurriculars? Did you do a lot of them too?</p>
<p>Yes. But the number isn't important - it's that I was active in them and held leadership positions.</p>
