<p>Can anyone explain this major to me. It seems to be a mix of bio, math, and stat but im not really sure. </p>
<p>Almost all of the required courses are math/stat related but the description on cornell's website makes it seem like a very sciency major. </p>
<p>Any info would be appreciated. THankz.</p>

Biometry and Statistics majors learn to use quantitative methods to solve problems in the biological, physical, and social sciences. Biometry is the application of statistics, mathematics, computing, and other quantitative methods to phenomena and problems in the life sciences. Statistics is concerned with many aspects of scientific investigations: developing and studying the design and measurement aspects of investigations, executing investigations and collecting numerical information, summarizing the data obtained, and making inferences from the data.

<p>There is this obscure thing called the 'search' function on the Cornell website. I heard it's pretty helpful</p>
<p>I already saw that. U dont need to be such a ===) jrcho88.</p>
<p>I was just wondering if it is very science related or if it's more like a Math/ORIE major because I dont really love science.</p>
<p>The reason im asking is because im interested in AEM (yes i no there are a lot of science requirements) and was looking into some options if i get into cornell and decide to pursue a minor or double major.</p>
<p>Anyone else?</p>
<p>double majoring in AEM and another science in CALS is very easy to do. I'm doing it right now with AEM and Biology.</p>
<p>I suggest you call the course office and ask them questions, they will most likely be able to give you the best answers.</p>
<p>applied math is what it is.</p>
<p>Does anyone who how hard biometry is to get into as opposed to other majors at CALS?</p>
