I am an 18 year old student from Texas. I am still a senior in high school but I am already a junior in college. I was part of a program of early college high schools in Texas, where students in high school get the opportunity to attend college and high school at the same time and end up earning both a college degree and high school diploma at the same time. I will be graduating from high school within two weeks, however I already graduated from my local community college with an Associates Degree when I was a 17 and during my senior year I attended my city's university. I unfortunately didn't do as good as I would have wanted. Since I still attended my high school and the university at the same time along with family reasons I did not have enough time and concentration to study for the much harder exams of my college classes and it hurt my grades. I currently have a 3.0 GPA in college since I earned A's and B's for the most part and a couple of C's along with receiving an F and a D in two classes . I am worried if there is still a chance for me to become a doctor. If so, then should I retake the classes I did poorly on? Also, I was thinking about changing my major from Microbiology to Nursing and become an RN meanwhile and take the extra requirement classes that I need for medical school and then apply for medical school so that I can have a fall back and a well paying job during med school, but I want to know if this is a good choice or not? The reason is that I need a well paying job desperately since I was kicked out of my house by my parents because I am gay and I am currently living with my boyfriend and his family and I would like to become more independent.
