<p>I want to major in Biology and eventually go to med school. Any school recommendations with really renown biology departments?</p>

<p>Disregard details like scores and financial aid; I'm just looking for names.</p>

2

<p>If you live in California, UCSD. Great biology program, and not ultra competitive like Berkeley.</p>

3

<p>I’m in Oregon :/</p>

4

<p>The criteria you provide are simply too broad.</p>

5

<p>Your in-state public schools. And I’m glad your folks can pay $60K/year for you to attend any school.</p>

<p>Erins dad- I think she just wants to get a feel for which schools are good in that major before looking into the financial side…</p>

<p>UCLA, university of Washington, wash u, Stanford, Cornell, Columbia, Vanderbilt, Baylor, johns hopkins, UNC-chapel hill, Harvard, Boston U, northwestern, Wisconsin-Madison, Minnesota-twin cities, tufts university, and duke to name a few.</p>

<p>Erin’s dad- the op wasn’t asking for schools that would fit his/hers specific stats or financial needs. The op just wanted to know which schools have good programs and then he/she can look at those schools and similar, possibly cheaper or less selective, schools.</p>

11

<p>^ precisely</p>

12

<p>The OP is free to ignore posts that bring up very important issues that should be considered.</p>

13

<p>I’m not ignoring anything. I know that some of those schools will be reaches/ones that I can’t afford, I’m just clueless as to where to start so I figured why not ask around?</p>
