You will probably have difficulty getting into med school unless you can somehow convince them that you have gone through some kind of life-changing experience that has made you more responsible and dedicated. That too is highly unlikley... convincing them that is.

My mother died at the very beginning of 10th grade. My grades dropped from As throughout my schooling, to Cs and Ds that year (grades I never had before); of course, I brought them back up. When I applied to nursing school, I was asked to explain why that happened. I was honest-- that I was a teenage caregiver to my ill mother and my little sister, and was often up at night to take care of their needs. I also told them how my mom entered the hospital in early Sept where she stayed two months until her death. I was accepted into nursing school and averaged a solid A-average.

Just be honest--whatever happened. If you messed up, state matter-of-factly why you believe it happened (show insight without getting defensive). Think about what you learned from that mistake, and how you remedied it. For example: "I fell in with the wrong crowd that year. I let them talk me into skipping school. By the time mid-terms came, I was so far behind I felt it was useless to try. But then, I realized it was dumb to throw away my education. I applied myself to my studies and brought my grades back up. That summer. I re-took one class at a different school and earned a B. But they did not offer the other classes as summer programs. But in my senior year during Study Hall, a teacher agreed to let me sit in on a class I had failed as a junior. I took each test--and earned Bs-- but I did not get credit for the class. I also studied with a tutor for the other classes I messed up, so I do know the material now. I learned a huge lesson that year about resisting peer pressure. I still feel ashamed over the poor grades, but I did every step I could think of to remedy my prior bad performance and I earned As as a Senior."


You still might not get accepted to the university you desire. But your honesty will be refreshing to the interviewers who ask what happened.

When does Naruto become a chunnin?

He hasn't become a Chuunin yet; he is still a genin, though his abilities prove otherwise. This is due to the fact that while training with Jiraiya during the timeskip, he missed the Chuunin exams. Also, he failed to become a Chuunin during the pre-Shippuden anime series.
