So I am a first-year at a CSU. This is my second semester here. I went through my first two semesters as a biology major and I realized that I don't want to continue on with it and do pre-pharm as I had originally thought. It just wasn't what I was looking for in the end and so I decided I wanted to give kinesiology a try. The problem is, is that I totally don't know how to go about any of this in the sense that I had my 4-year plan already figured out for pharmacology and had already picked out what pharmacology schools I'd like to go to and apply, etc. But now, all of that is gone and I'm doing something different. With kinesiology, I wanted to go into exercise science and become a physical therapist.
I tried meeting with my advisor, in the biology department, about switching and he sort of just gave me the cold shoulder.
I didn't have the greatest GPA that I could've gotten my first semester. I passed my chemistry class with a C, however, my math class brought my GPA down a lot since it was a 4 unit class. My fall semester I ended with a 2.4 GPA. This semester has only gotten harder as the science classes I'm taking are for biology major so just more grueling chemistry. Is there still a chance to make it into PT school?
Currently, I participate in the marching band and a music service sorority here at my school. Would this help with admissions when trying to get into PT schools?
Sorry if these questions are silly, etc. I'm just so lost right now in what I'm doing for my future and my career. The only thing I know of is that I don't see myself doing pharmacology like I used to.
