C's, eek gad

Graduate School

<p>So, this is my second semester at college and I've been having a rough time with a few courses even thoguh I've been try fairly hard. I've have managed to secure C's on three out of four midterms (U.S. Gov 74,Chem 71,Music 75) and a B (Mutlivariable Calc 83) on the fourth. Chances are I'll finish this semester with a 2.5-3.0 GPA. I'm double majoring in Bio ang Gov at a good liberal arts college in New England, as maybe you've read in previous posts of mine. </p>

<p>If I pull myself out of my slump and go back to around the 3.5 GPA that I had first semester and 3.7 I had january term, how do you think this will affect my after college life in terms of being competitve for jobs and grad schools?</p>

<p>With your past experience, is this second semester a strong prediction of my grade capabilites, or is there a good chance I'm I just in a slump (my chem and music professors teach in a way that's not advantageous to the way I learn)?</p>

<p>I know nobody can really know these things, but what does your experience tell you?</p>

<p>thanks! =)</p>

<p>what would you go to grad school for?</p>

<p>Will a C in Education Law (in my case, and I'm not pre-law) during the Fall of my Junior Year (when I got As, yes As, in my other courses) impact my admissions to Graduate Schools? Should I just give up since a C will reject me at the top colleges?</p>

<p>if you're mocking me, my situtation is very different.</p>

<p>The thing is, I will msot likely be gonig for Biology/Environmental Biology (I've already secured an internship working in the white mountains doing evnironmental bio-chem research during this summer and next), btu I'm still not exactly sure. And if you're wondering why I'm majoring in Gov too, it's because I really enjoy it =), and I'll ahve my entire grad school career to take science classes, or so I'm told.</p>
