<p>would you say JHU is more competitve than Cornell or are they the same? I'm talking about somebody doing biology but not necessarilly pre-med</p>
<p>Someone doing biology would pretty much take the same courses as premeds (most bio majors are premed). How tough will depend on how high of a GPA you want.</p>
<p>What we found while college-hunting was that a good number of the colleges of comparable (in our opinion) repute to Cornell were also considered quite tough, in much the same way.</p>
