GPA: 3.8
I recently received an IA for cheating on an exam and there is a possibility that I will be hit with an academic probation (IA) or a written warning (does not go anywhere).
My grades and service and leadership have been stellar until the beginning of this semester, when I faced a sexual assault situation.
This situation really ruined my mental health, which led to me not being able to focus and failing numerous exams (abnormal), and led to me making this poor and uncharacteristic decision. I know an IA is a huge red flag to medical schools, and I never thought I would have been in this situaiton, but I also was faced with incredibly extenuating circumstances. I was wondering if this is the end of my medical school career, or could I explain this situation?
