<p>So this semester was my first at one of the Top HBCUs in the country. To say I did excellent would be a huge lie. I did horribly and I am very disappointed for that. I failed everything a nd though there is an excuse for it a reasonable if not good one it is still my fault and I take FULL responcibilty for it. My question is should I stay and retake all the courses I flunked or should I withdraw, go to a Community college and just transfer into another college in a year or two? I know where I made my mistakes and I understand that if I go back I will be on academic probation but should I even make the effort? I mean I KNOW if I go back I will make straight A's which still would not be enough to up my G.P.A to a 2.0 ( actually it will put me at a 1.9 or so) which is the reason for the confusion. So what should I do are there any suggestions out there? Also how much will this affect my chances ad Med school, apparently Im not totally shot if I can make a drastic turn around but really would I even be considered for my Top 5?</p>
<p>Well, given what you just told us, I think it would truly benefit you if you took some remedial classes at a CC…</p>
<p>But, wouldnt the G.P.A just follow? I dont really want to lose my place at my school, it took a while for me to even get use to it and now that I have I really dont want to let it go, I dont know, and can I just take a semester off instead of fully withdrawing and make up the credits at a cc that way, would that even work?</p>
<p>somethig is off
</p>
<p>people don’t fail classes, then “know” they will get straight A’s if they try again.</p>
<p>why did you fail?</p>
<p>GPAs do not follow you if you transfer.</p>
<p>Not to sound like a prig, but given all your spelling errors and run-on sentences, a few years at a CC learning the basics you should have learned in high school sounds like it might be right for you. I say this for <em>your</em> benefit, not to be a jerk. You want to go to med school? Then it means you must present yourself well. Speak well, write well, don’t give them a reason to throw your application in the trash.</p>
