So I will be getting 2 A- this semester. I’m just finishing up my freshman year and my GPA is going to drop from a 4.0 to a 3.93. My science GPA is going to drop from a 4 to a 3.95. Although a 3.95 is still good, I’m very worried about getting into medical school or my college (UF)'s 7 year Junior honors medical program because I’m sure there are so many 4.0s out there. I’m also afraid that this will be an omen for even more bad grades to come as I take harder classes. The A minuses I got were in an elective I took for fun an Bio 2. It was the ecology part of Bio 2 that brought my grade down. I did get an A in an upper level (4000) genetics course though.
Don’t worry too much, you did really well for the first year. Keep it up and you are going places.
