• Answer:

  You do have a low gpa. But still all is not lost. You need to talk to more people about this matter. Even your family Dr can help you. Here is a really good way to find out if you really have a good chance. Check with a medical school. You will need to know all this before you can even think about being a Dr. Don't worry about the math now. Check with people who are in the know. of what you are trying to become. Always ask a lot of questions. it's the only way to find out. Okay?
