Hello,
I’m going to be a senior this fall, so this summer I have to prepare my applications for the schools I want to go. I’ve tried using collegedata.com to help search for colleges, but the website seems kind of bad. Anyways, I’m planning on Major in Mechanical Engineering and Minor in Biomedical Engineering, so I can work in the biologial field.
Here are my stats as of right now:
