But anyways, how would I fare (as far as admission into the school) at AUC if i retake the class? I am determined to become an MD and I will do w/e it takes to get there. My two schools of choice are AUC and SGU. I have head SGU is ok with this.

Thanks

One word or Link, "Ratemyprofessor.com" , this site gives reviews on most professors in the colleges. A professor can make or break you. For those still have classes to take, just out your professor before taking the class.

If you have any MCAT study books I would use them along with your current text book this way you are getting the concepts from multiple angles. This is how I recieve A's in physics eventhough I am good in math their is just something about physics that bothered me for a while.

It won't hurt your chances of getting into AUC if you retake a class and get good grades.

One of the best study aids for the MCAT were the Gold Standard Video Lecture cds and the "Audio Osmosis" audio cds. The overpriced kaplan book with the practice tests in the back was more annoying than productive, in my opinion.
