while bio-e is difficult, don’t forget that probably 70% of the premed majors in bio also never apply to med school. This is true at practically every college. At some colleges, ~33% of the entering class are premeds - obviously, only a few make it through the science gauntlet and apply to med.

There are only so many A’s to go around, and a LOT of kids are just like you, 4/5 on AP Chem, but retaking the course for the “easy” A. But, by definition, half of the class will get a C (or lower).
