Honestly, to be competitive for graduate school admission, you'll need at least a 3.8, and a high GRE score, in addition to participating in undergraduate research (if that's an option), completing observation hours, and in general having a well-rounded application and strong recommendations from your major professors. The admissions committee at many universities has begun interviewing prospective applicants. The applicant pool numbers are often posted at many graduate schools (i.e. how many spots are open, and how many prospective students applied for those spots).
Anatomy is by no means the hardest class in the major (and cadavers are used, to the best of my knowledge). They are all hard, as it's an applied behavioral science, and coursework gets harder in graduate school. Have you looked at the ASHA (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association) website to see the required coursework and clock hours for certification upon completion of your master's degree? That should give you an idea of the difficulty of the undergraduate major.

I've been on the site but it wasn't too helpful in terms of undergrad info. That or i wasn't looking in the right areas, I went to my school website and looked at the requirements for both a BA and MA..It said i would need at least a 3.5 GPA to be considered for admission in a MA program.
