Our student this week is someone who did well in high school but struggled with the transition to university. At the end of freshman year, she had a 2.0 GPA. Then it went even lower in sophomore year, due to some family issues when her dad got sick.

She took a year off, then started back at community college and gradually now at university. She's doing well with her grades at this point, just taking fewer credits at once.

We talk about:
• What she needs to be doing to fix this low GPA.
• Options for clinical experience.
• Risks with her going to community college for a postbac.
• Different options for how to take your prereqs when doing GPA repair.
• Making sure she doesn't get derailed by similar problems again.
• Focusing on YOUR journey instead of comparing yourself to others.
