I applied ED to Johns Hopkins for the BME major this fall, and while I feel I have a strong biology-focused resume (check my profile if you want more info), I have absolutely zero experience in engineering. My interests shifted somewhat drastically this summer, as I realized I wanted to leverage both my above-average math skills and my interest in molecular biology throughout my career. How much would this negatively impact my application?
I don’t think it will negatively impact your application. My son was accepted to BME ED last year with zero engineering experience. He was just a strong math and science candidate.
