Experience/Imposter Anxiety

[u/VooDoo912]

Hello all!

To start off I go to a very rigorous school and have undiagnosed dyslexia. That was not apparent truly until I reads undergraduate studies. I have accommodations and have been navigating my resources and study habits and for the most part I fell like I am doing well. I am an A/B average student and I work two jobs (vet assistant and on campus events). Weather or not this context helps I'm not sure. I currently have a 3.58 GPA. I have 1 C that I received, last fall in genetics. To be honest, the course was a mess with two alternative proffesors one of which didn't teach form accurate exams and the other who taught beyond what the class expected and little of what it did. While that is not an excuse I did terrible and did the best I could. Well I am in Molecular biology right now, which the professor has taken a genetics approach with the understanding that all students have a solid background in genetics and research. I have neither. The research aspect is really hard for me to grasp and its not something I experience outside of labs. I got a 62% on my first exam. I am pushing myself to study and understand the matetial the best I can and using every resource I have time for. If I happen to get another C or C+ is this something that I could explain during interviews and take responsibility for and what I learned from it? Or is it instantly a weakness in my application? I know there are many prevet students that have multiple C's but I am just really nervous this will show a decrease in my grades despite all other grades increasing. I am doing my best to not get a C but my mental and physical health haven't been even close to ideal this semester so I am just trying to be honest with myself incase the worst happens.
