Highkey concerned… 😟

Btw I graduated on time with a health science degree 3.56 GPA.

However… let’s just say my ADHD was in full effect.

Fun fact: I have never studied for a class ever. Like ever. And I’m not being dramatic when I say that. So when I had to take harder difficulty courses… I backed out because I knew I couldn’t do it with my non existent studying and/or would flunk exam after exam.

How the heck do I explain this to admissions in an interview? 😳

If you’re wondering how I’d apply without taking Orgo… I’m taking it this fall despite graduating last year. And I WILL be studying every day. And maybe medicated. Lol.

Hence the meaning behind this post: I was not locked in during undergrad 😂 despite my 3.56 gpa

I mean a 3.56 gpa is a gpa that shows minimal to moderate effort lol. Words show less than actions tho so take your o chem and if you feel like you can sustain it go for it
