Those who have applied to Vet School, what are my chances of acceptance?

I am currently working on my experience, but my overall gpa isn't that great. It is a 2.8. I transferred from a community college to a university, after two semesters at uni my gpa still isn' great. In regards to pre reqs for vet school, it isn't great:

Calculus-C

Gen Bio 1-C

Gen Bio 2-C

Gen Chem 1-B+

Gen Chem 2-A-

O Chem 1-C

(with retaking each of those above classes)

O Chem 2-C

Stats-B+

Anat and Phys- B+

Physics 1- B-

Physics 2-C

Genetics- C

Biochem- C

So, with these grades are my chances of getting into vet school limited, or okay since they are passing?

Update:

Also, if I should retake classes some more, what would be recommended?

    Absolutely no chance at all. Admission to Veterinary Medicine schools is even more competitive than medical school. Expect to need minimum GPA of 3.75 from a highly rated school, and straight-A grades in all your sciences & math.

    I'm sorry, but your chances are close to zero. With only 30 vet schools in the US, even a 3.5 is a low GPA. Again, I'm sorry.
