I'm having one of those hours where I've decided I'm a failure at life, and I've entered a full-blown panic attack (and instead, I should be studying).
I'd like to attend graduate school to study Chemistry. I'm a female, junior, currently attend a name brand University (and by name brand, I mean overrated non-Ivy). I'm interested in Organic Chemistry, but my grades were B+ both semesters. My overall GPA is currently 3.5, but I've had notable, inexcusable blunders that lowered my GPA quite a bit.
So far I've completed a summer research opportunity at a big pharma synthesizing drug-like compounds (that went well), and I've just begun research in an Organic lab (spring, junior year.) I've never gotten below a B in a chemistry course, but I haven't gotten exclusively A's either.
I know this is the most poorly written piece of whatever, but if anyone has ANY insight...or words of widsom....or advice as to how to STOP freaking out, let me know. Do I have a shot at getting into graduate programs?
Chem Grad...help!

Thanks! My classes are more under control this semester. (It's my easiest thus far, and for the first time ever I'm not taking some harrowing math course!!). I'm hoping to graduate with above a 3.5, and now that I've gotten through my most difficult coursework, so hopefully that will improve :oops:
