<p>how tough is the science program at emory?</p>
<p>The science majors (chem, bio, and especially NBB) are among the most challening majors at Emory. They are not for the weak. So many Emory freshman come to Emory with the intention of majoring in one of these subjects, but ultimately switch to a less rigorous major because they cannot handle or do not want to bear the sheer difficulty of science classes. </p>
<p>I don't know how the difficulty of the sciences at Emory compares to its peer universities.</p>
