<p>Argh, I can't believe I forgot to mention that.</p>

<p>Well, for the application I put down my first choice major as Biology and my second choice Biomedical Engineering. </p>

<p>I think if you wrote some good essays, did everything required and recommended (you got 2 letters, that's good), you will have a good shot at Biology. The SAT and ACT scores are a bit below average for students at A&M, but I think you make up for it in other aspects like course load, GPA, class rank. Good luck and Gig'em, Zach.</p>
