Thanks for your thoughts, it's easy for me to get my head down on something like this but it is encouraging to read responses like yours and the earlier one.

It might depend on the school. The grad school I'm applying to does not require a lab.

My schools are very specific about the content for statistics (parametric and non-parametric tests, not a research methods course). I took a lot of psych courses which covered my behavioural sciences requirements.

The physical science requirement was listed as either a general chemistry or physics according to the ASHA 2014 standards.
 
All the schools I'm applying said these ASHA prerequisites have to be a B or better and they can be also taken from a community college or university level. You seemed to have fulfilled the requirement with your gen chem 1. HOWEVER, it's the graduate school's final decision if a course also meets the physical science requirement.
 
For now, maybe it's best to send the course outline to your prospective school program coordinators to confirm if it matches with they need.

Not an expert in this field, but I strongly suspect tutoring. It's more similar to what speech-language pathologists do, and is more difficult. Anyone with at least a grade-school reading level can read to kids, and you can read on autopilot, but tutoring isn't something you can phone in, or at least not as easily. I used to tutor elementary school kids, for what it's worth, and it was hard and I sucked at it.

I appreciate your response, something that I have difficulty doing is forgetting about the work so far, and focusing in on what is important now without freaking out about the future. I feel as though (in the event I enjoy CSD) that once I start working on classes pertaining to a major I am confident in, I will do well. Only time will tell. Again, thanks for the reply.

It's ok if your first 2 years in university were not great.  Many graduate programs only look at the last 60 units.  Do some research and identify which schools those are and look into applying there.  Just make the rest of your undergraduate career count.  Shoot for A's and B's and you'll be fine.  I'm currently in graduate school and my GPA wasn't very high.  You definitely have the opportunity to raise your GPA.  Like the previous poster sort of hinted at, I'd recommend looking at the graduate programs that you're interested in and seeing what pre-req classes they require.  Start taking those classes. Drop the "unnecessary" ones.   Also, the fact that you didn't start with speech from the beginning is ok.  I have a BA in an un-related field. 
 
Your situation is not impossible and you can make it to grad school.  Based on your story, it's in the cards for you.  Good luck.

I can understand your sentiments. Fortunately, you still have a lot of opportunities to raise your GPA. The greatest advice I learned from people who were accepted is that your preparation is not a race. You are competing against yourself. For that reason, I would strongly concentrate on those CSD courses over anything else. If you need to go part-time to maintain the 4.0 in CSD, there is nothing wrong with it. Those are very high stakes since admissions told me they weigh them the most and more scrutinized if you are a CSD major.
 
Drop the courses that are not required by ASHA or most schools.  If you want to be more marketable, maybe take Spanish but your priority is to focus on those CSD. If you feel that you are starting to slip in your classes, be very assertive, bug the prof and say NO to any distraction/activity. If you don't need to work, do not work. If you need to, cut down on your hours.
 
I noticed you listed a lot of plans for extra-curricular activiites. It might be a good idea to first shadow different areas before making a commitment. Also, examine and reflect where your interest/motivation was in your classes to help you decide. I LOVED research and interacting with adults and applying everything I learned from my anatomy, psychology, audiology and acoustics and so I worked with an SLP who specialized in medical rehab and just did sporadic observations of articulation and child language. I understood everything he was saying when he was telling me about why a certain maneuvre is being done. All I can say is it was enchanting to see everything come alive. So, if you do finally decide to materalize your plans, make sure it is one that will enjoy and show some passion. You'll know it becasue it'll be a hobby, you aren't wasting your mental resources. It is one part of your profile from where you might also request a glowing LOR and expand in your personal statement so make it memorable and worthwhile
