<p>so...does anyone have any suggestions</p>

Purdue University.
North Carolina State Univeristy.
Rutgers, State University of New Jersey</p>

<p>there are others, but those are easy to get into.</p>

<p>are they(Rutgers, Florida, NC STate, Purdue) easy to get into w/ a 3.42 on a 4.6 scale and a 1980 on the SAT</p>

<p>hi...its me again- i realized even though biomed. appeals to me, i am reading other threads and they are telling me that biomed. majors have the worst time to get into a job. is this true?</p>

<p>Does it matter if your preferred major has a hard time to get a job?
I don't think so.</p>

7

<p>JHU has the No. 1 Biomedical Engineering program in the country. I suggest you try applying.</p>

<p>JHU is gonna be a reach for you though, sorry bud, still try though
good luck =)
remember ur only a junior you have lots of time bring up ur SAT, try to break 2150 (u could def raise yours by 100 pts) then you have a better shot at schools like JHU (even though ur rank and gpa are still on the low side)</p>
