How badly did I screw up?

I’m not expert on med school admissions and what they are looking for… but what I would tell a friend in this same situation is to ask yourself a couple questions. Do you think you would actually enjoy the science pre-reqs you would have to be taking the rest of college? Is med school your dream? I’ve seen people drop pre-med after one semester because the classes are making them miserable, they had a chance of heart about what their passions are, etc… and that is totally valid and nothing to be ashamed of. However, if you do have the passion and think you could still have a good college experience as a pre-med, I would say don’t give up this soon! It’s SO early your college experience… you have no idea what the future might hold. I would recommend (unless the classes are making you miserable or you had a change of heart) sticking with it and just doing your best. I know this is a clique but it’s really all about the journey, not the end result of med school. Focus on what makes you happy and what you are passionate about, do your best, and the rest will fall into place. Best of luck :).
