Answer 1

Colleges look favorably upon challenging coursework, but not accompanied by such a low GPA. and the UCs are very tough to get into, so I would look for some easier colleges. I hope you realize that you need to really get your grades up once you go into college. Pre-med is not the easiest (although biology is probably the easier science major), and medicine is a long and difficult route. So make sure to do well in college! A 2.7 won't fly anymore... you need to try and at least get a 3.5 if you want to get into a medical school... they are becoming more and more competitive.

Try Golden Gate University (San Francisco), you will definitely get in. They are on rolling admissions as well.

Answer 2

The problem is that most schools will look down upon someone who took AP courses and has a 2.7 GPA. They will look much more fondly at a student who took regular courses and got a 3.5. That student didn't take on more than they could handle. Depending on SAT scores I think you will get into an average school but not a nationally ranked school or anything. They are too competitive.

Answer 3

Contact the schools of you choice UC Davis or LA are good medical others might be. If you don't qualify go to a State college. I had quite a few med majors who were making up for poor high school grades, when I was a biology major at Humboldt State (now Calif state university at Humboldt)
