Statisitically it is possible.  The problem you have is that you probably have some bad study (or party) habits.  You had better get focused...'cuz those IE class are not going to be easy...

Your GPA and your ACT score tell two different stories.  Did something happen when you took your ACT?  Or is 21 a typo?  Your GPA and class list look great, but if I were you, I'd take the ACT one more time to get that extra boost.  \n\nGood luck!  Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

No, follow the requirements. Most Universities accept 3.0 but, attempt 3.7 at least to recieve a better chance.\nGet recommendations.

It may be the same point as GPA or it may be like a weighted GPA in which you can get higher than a 4.0 because you get it higher if you take honors classes or AP classes in which you get an A.

If you calculate it out, and if you're talking about weighted GPA, then yes it will.  If you're talking about unweighted, it'll basically stay the same (you'll have a 3.0 unweighted)

finish school first, get that education and if you are as good as you say, you will get your chance in a few more years. OK.

I would suggest you work on bringing up your gpa these last 3 years of highs school so that you can compete with the other students trying to get into those schools with you. You could definately get accepted if you work on it and continue to participate in extracurricular activities. Don't forget to take the ACT too as some schools want to see one or the other or both sometimes when looking to accept students to their instituation. Hope that helps!

it may be hard to get your first job with a low GPA but once you get in somewhere even if it is not your dream job or best pay you stay at least two years and get some experience then look for work again you should be fine.  \nI know people in HR and they do look at GPA if you are fresh out of college for all positions they hire.  What your professor said may be true about IT if aonther IT person is doing the hiring but they usually aren't even part of the proscess.

The time to graduate is not an issue.  There requirement is that you have a four year degree.  The requirement is not that you graduate in four years.

I would say, if you went to a four year school, you would have a pretty good chance, but since you went to a community college, it's hard to say.  For people who went to four year schools, a 3.5 is good, but for community college, you need to be close to a 3.9.  Many of the pharmacy programs are prejudicial against community college only students.  My school, which has a 162 students per year, only accepts about 3 community college only students per year.  Of the 3, most are non-traditional students.  Most colleges are leaning towards requiring a bachelors in the coming years.\nYou also have to take the PCAT.\nPharmacy school is difficult but doable.\nIf you do apply, make sure you have a back-up plan, just in case.

Aten's answer is good, but I'll add that a 3.4 from a state college is not a very competitive record. Most Ivies would not consider a student with a GPA below 3.5 even if he came from a top school. \nI'm not sure what you mean by suggesting that he is a strong student, because that GPA is not strong and you say he has no graduate credits. \n\nHe is going to have to do something more that show them the color of his skin to convince them to give him one of the highly coveted spots that are so competitive.  What has he got to offer? Some patents? Articles he's written in computer magazines? Talks he's given at computer conventions? Coaching his local high school computer team to a National Championship?

depending on the school you went to,the GPA is not bad. Georgia Tech students with 2.5 still get jobs and still get scholarships and I know repeating a course is common for them

This sounds dubious, unethical, and highly likely to backfire on you. If every student could just change his/her grades, then GPAs would have no meaning. Your current school is not going to be fooled by this ruse. Find a moral way to achieve your goals.

Not necessarily. Many colleges look at both your overall gpa and your last two years gpa. So, hopefully you will do very well this year and next year. Remember that you only have two more semesters to get grades before most applications are due (you have this spring's grades and next fall's grades) so it is critical that you do well. \n\nRemember, that gpa is one very important factor in admissions, but most colleges also want you to have high SAT or ACT scores, so you need to prepare for doing well on this test. You can study for it, and I like to have people study for it by buying a bunch of practice tests and taking a practice test a week for 8-12 weeks. Take a test, score it, and then look up every item you got wrong. Then repeat. You should see your scores improving.\n\nFinally, colleges really do want to see that you have some significant interests within and outside of school. So, you also need to show that you have leadership potential, or talent, or community impact. Clubs, hobbies, and community service can all be a part. \n\nFinally, you really need to be able to do a good personal statement. It probably would be helpful to address your poor grades, why you had them and what you learned about yourself so that you could turn it around. Be able to address your values and why you and the school you are applying to are a good match. \n\nHang in there, do well, and remember that college applications are multifaceted.

The previous answer works, and that is how colleges determine your gpa, but converting from a 100 point scale to a 4 point scale can be simplified.\n\n - Take your gpa on a 100 point scale (87.3)\n - Multiply by 4\n - Dividie by 100\n\n(87.3 x 4)= 349.2\n\n349.2/100 = 3.492\n\nYour GPA (On a 4.0 scale) is 3.49

Looks like you will be repeating freshman year. I doubt you could raise your grades to even a D average. You're in high school now; grow up and take some respobsibilty.
