How hard is the math in Biomedical Engineering?
We are not getting you wrong, but being good at math in high school does not mean much, college math is very different (even the courses you "took all ready"). Most people take 4 years of math, and a lot of people take AP calc, it is not really any sign of anything to be honest. However, PE2008 is right, if you are doing pre-med, biomed engineering is a really bad choice of major. To get into med school, you need high grades (and no matter how much people want to tell you otherwise, the difficulty of your major does not ameliorate a subpar GPA), you are not going to be able to get near a 4.0 with biomed engineering. If you go to a good school, it will be very very difficult to even get a 3.5. For one, the grading in college is different in engineering. Many colleges grade off a distribution, which essentially means your grade is based on your rank in that class, and most people get the average grade (usually a 2.5 or generously a 3.0). A very few number of people get an A, you have to be the best of the best in a given class. Going to a top college means that you will attend a school where every one of your classmates was the best of the best from their pond, so you have a lot to compete with. This distribution grading can also mean that some people have to fail just because they are ranked the lowest in the class. College is a different world, and you will really have to take our word for it about grades. Everyone gets a 4.0 in high school, but getting good grades in college is a new story entirely. I suggest you reconsider your major.
