<p>How is the science at Tufts? And how does it compare to Michigan Honors program...which would you choose?</p>
<p>Michigan is excellent in the sciences, even better if you're in the honors program. You're more likely to have larger classes and the premeds are likely to be cut-throat but I'm sure the honors program would make the experience better outside of academics. Tufts has an LAC like feel if that's what you like while also offering a smaller but more intimate biology program. Visit the schools and see which fits better for you, you can't go wrong with either (and if money isn't an issue).</p>
<p>thanks! I'm pretty sure that I'm picking Tufts</p>
<p>yay! one down, 1200 to go lol</p>
<p>Are they really as hard as the guy on the other tread says? I have had AP Bio, Honors Chen and Honors Physics. I did well in all of them. Will I survive them as a Fresh. If I want to major in biology?</p>
<p>Someone told me that those tests were curved based on the median, so if you got a 93 itd be a B+, and an 83 was an 80. That really bothered me.</p>
<p>Bioloy 13 is difficult in that the exam have questions on them that are either:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>based on one fact from one sentence in the textbook</p></li>
<li><p>make you apply some idea to a situation not described in the textbook</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Biology 13 is definately a premed weeder class.</p>
<p>Bluirinka, only biology 14 does that.</p>
<p>oh thanks for clearing that up for me! :-D</p>
