I graduated with a biochem degree this semester and I plan to apply this cycle. But, I got a d in biochem 1 and a c in biochem 2. My gpa is a 3.6 right now. I know most schools require a C minimum for all pre-reqs and I wasn’t sure if they would take my c in biochem 2 for the biochem prereq?

My school offers a separate biochem class that bio majors take instead of the one I took. It’s offered in the summer, so I could take it soon. But I think it would be too late to add to applications for this cycle. Please let me know what I should do. I’ve been feeling pretty down about this.

It seems like everyone is unsure if we can use interfolio or not. I have some old interfolio letters and I am not sure if should reach out to those professors again about it. It sucks that the application doesn’t open until May 12th because I feel like I should give professors more time to write and submit their letters. I also asked a dentist to write me a letter last year and she just recently sent me it directly through email and not through the interfolio link because she said it didn’t work. I don’t think I can use that letter now. I could ask her to submit it through a new link from interfolio or liaison, but I am afraid she will take months and months to do so again. So, I think I will just have to ask another dentist. Do I ask the dentist right now? Or should I wait until the application opens on May 12th? Same with my old professors, should I wait until the app opens or email them rn about the update? Just so confused about this whole thing.

I am so confused about the new LOR update. I asked 2 professors and 1 dentist last year to write me letters in interfolio. How do I send the likert scale to them? Can I still use interfolio? Also, the dentist told me that she was not able to upload to interfolio and just emailed me my lor directly months and months after the due date I put in interfolio 😭. I don’t think I can use one that way. Do I just have to ask another dentist instead? Applications are coming up and I am so stressed about this new update.
