<p>First, I'm a chemical engineering major, who might switch to either materials engineering or chemistry.</p>
<p>By AP credit, my first college math course was Calc III. By the end of this semester, I will complete Abstract algebra, which is the most advanced (but not my last) course required in order to complete a math minor. Right now, I have 51/60 points in Abstract algebra, which is a B+. If I get perfect on the next 40 points, I will get a 91/100, which is A-. If not, 90/100 is considered B+ I think....</p>
<p>My previous grades:
Calc III (B+)
Diff Eq (D-; retake A-)
Linear Algebra (D+; Retake B+)</p>
<p>I took most of these courses in high school. The D- and D+ you see are there because I fked up senior of high school due to various personal reasons such as family issues, depression, etc. (not drugs, gangs of stuff like that). I could have gotten solid A's in all those classes, but I just didn't have the right motivation. I learned a lot, and I'm aspiring to get straight A's through college from now on.</p>
<p>I still have to take this class called "intro to proofs," but I am absolutely NOT taking that class because it'll bore me to death. I'm thinking to challenge myself with Real Analysis, which will also allow me to complete my math minor. I WILL get an A in Real Analysis.</p>
<p>If all goes well, it looks like that my GPA in math will be no higher than a 3.5. I want to go to a prestigious grad school. How much will this hurt me?</p>
