  1. Anyone work in the field of medical/health? I am currently in my 3rd year of a 4 year Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences (specialization in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology). The program info/map can be found here. Previously, I wanted to become a doctor but I don't think I have the marks for it and I'm not sure if it is what I still want to do. I'm really interested in Pharmacy and was thinking of working for a biotechnology company making new therapeutics in the future. I received 3 D's so far (1 in Calc II, which I am currently retaking, and the other 2 were in Organic Chemistry II and Biochemistry). I am planning on redoing these over the summer so I can boost up my GPA. My other marks are all A's or B's with a few C's. My current GPA is a 3.0 on a 4.3 scale (B average). I know it could be a lot worse... but I was wondering what are some options I have? Should I look into doing some type of Masters of Science program or should I focus on getting admitted to a Med/Pharmacy school? I live in Canada and getting into Med/Pharmacy here is next to impossible unless you have stellar marks (3.7+ GPA) and loads of EC's. Going to the States or the Carribean is an option too. There are really too many options and I am really lost on what to do. What GPA should I aim on getting in order to be competitive among other students? It seems that if you don't go the Medschool/Pharmacy route... it's looked down upon or something? (Especially being from a family with an Indian background). Thanks for any advice and let me know if you require more information from me.
