I am in the same boat. I have a 2.5 GPA and my science GPA will be only a 2.0 after this semester… I am a senior at UK majoring in Biology. I transferred here and my chemistry classes brought my GPA down QUICK. I got a D in organic 1 and general chem 1. I couldn't imagine retaking them.
Can you please give me more advice? I am very impressed with what you have done.
When you were a lab tech at Columbia, were you in grad school there? If not, how did you find out about that prestigious position? I am a research assistant in Biomedical Informatics, however I do not have any lab experience whatsoever. It sounds phony, but I am a horrible test taker. I'm amazing at my job and pretty intelligent, but my GPA just says I'm an idiot. I am a senior and am freaking out about what I will do after college. Please give me any more advice. I signed up for this threat specifically to reply to your response. Thank you
