<p>Check out the FAQ in the Pre-Med Topics forum:

<p>Question 1 is answered, and question 2 is indirectly answered.</p>

<p>As for your 3rd question, most universities won't reject you for a single C grade (except perhaps some of the elites/top 25 colleges). Your AP score shouldn't make much difference, since most colleges do not use AP scores for admission but rather, for placement once you've been admitted. You should look at why you didn't do better in the class and on the exam. Remember that it will only get harder in college.</p>

<p>I can't help you with your 4th question, but based on what you've posted, you probably have a lot of options open. Nothing seems to preclude you from admission to most colleges. Your GPA is great, your ACT is not bad (though it would be good if you could raise it like you said), everything else looks fine.</p>
