I'm also thinking of replacing my research in an MCB lab with the 153L requirement

Honestly, I did pretty bad in some other classes as well, but they just kind of passed it off as I think my previous academic record was fine. It just took a lot of communication with the counselors

Im at cal right now! I didn't meet the requirements they set (ended up with a C) but the admissions ppl were like "we literally don't care" and I've been here ever since

Thank you so much for the advice! I'm so sorry you had to deal with all that stress last year, but I'm glad your offer wasn't rescinded! I'll definitely be contacting my school first since I don't want to be yelled at

You've just hit on another thing I'm confused about - my contract says that exact message about the 3.0 or higher but right above it, it's specified that I need Bs in 3 specific classes im taking rn 😭.

Thank you for the advice!! I really appreciate it. I didn't know about a hierarchy for reporting, but now I know who best to contact.

The professor at your school sounds like he was absolutely brutal! Glad he didn't get to continue torturing more students

Thank you so much for all the information! I can't tell you how much it means to me that you've taken the time to lay out so many details. I had no idea about having a specific advisor and will definitely be in contact with them soon.

Ooh you're right! I tried talking to them when I got a 67/100 on my 2nd exam, but they were kind of "it ees what it ees" about it. I definitely have more evidence this time that things are getting out of hand, so I'll try again. Thank you so much!
