Long story short I started college as a history major, it was boring and too easy, and I was also in a band that traveled a lot. Came home to a CC for a year, grades suffered as I worked and toured with the band. Decided on trying to get into med school, switched to a Uni and have a huge upward trend (3/4 semesters at 4.0 the other one I got a B). GPA at current school (last 2 years) = 3.8something (3 B's)
