Your test scores are low. That is a fact. I think you have the drive and your current grades are showing that you can do the work. So the question is will you get into the school and into your degree. If you can’t get into biomed do look into EE or ME. I was EE with a specialization in Biomed and work in aerospace. You can do your dream with EE or ME. I won’t lie, engineering is hard! It isn’t for everyone. Does it mean you shouldn’t try? No. Just have a back up plan. Teachers say that people change majors all the time and they do but sometimes they don’t. My son went in pre-vet and will be starting vet school next fall. He got a 2 on the physics AP exam, (A in the class though) in HS but he got the highest grade in physics and has be a LA (like an undergrad TA) in physics for the past two years! He didn’t test well.

So If you don’t get in. Take a year or two in CC, take your basics, get good grades and try again.
