---"Pledge the library," what could be more lame?

The average GPA for medical school entrants is in the 3.5 - 3.6 range. Given that you currently have a 2.5, and that your most recent semester was a 2.0, medical school is not realistic for you. You might want to investigate other career options such as nursing, physical therapy, physician's assistant, etc. Even then, your grades would still be an obstacle.

Your college should have a career counseling and placement center. Schedule an appointment with a counselor, take your transcript, and talk about what you hope to achieve. The counselor can guide you from there.

Not likely...the same GPA is needed for these careers.

I see what you mean. There's a shortage of nursing school slots, and thus fierce competition for those few places, with many entrants having 3.7 - 4.0 GPA's. Some community colleges use a lottery system with a minimun 2.0 or 2.5 GPA, with maybe a 1/15 chance of getting in.

Okay, maybe the OP might also want to think about a LPN or Radiology Tech program.

Half of you all are fake, and don't even know shit about being in a sorority or fraternity. FYI, every word that i spell is correct. I came out of high school at 18, and i am a 19 year old sophomore. I will graduate in 2012, and I will get excepted into medical school. Yall can't knock me.

This is why I'm glad I receive the notifications to my email. Looks like somebody changed their mind about posting the above message.

I can safely say that everyone here has an education and knows about being in a sorority or fraternity. Some people who have responded have been advisors and national committee chairs.

You volunteered to come to GreekChat to share information about yourself and your GPA.
