“Don’t count on BIO 101 and 102 being a GPA booster. They are often weed-out classes with very strict grading curves and can easily end up being a B when you were counting on an A.”

-Confirm that being the case at D’s UG. First Bio was weed out killer, known even to other majors in Honors dorms since they all had to witness poor pre-med roomates laboring for hours completing their lab papers. Genetics was even much harder and practically impossible to do good without taking the first classes. Again, take advice here, but research at your UG. Talk to pre-med advisor and current pre-meds. IT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM SCHOOL TO SCHOOL.
