| 1) Listen to Mollie - if I recall right, she was a bio major and now she's studying more biology at Harvard =D Also, Johns Hopkins might be worth looking into.
2) Not sure if you've heard of UROP, but that's worth looking into. It's the Undergrad. Research Opportunities Program, and something like 80% of students participate. There are definitely plenty of opportunities here, right from freshman year.
3) I believe the admissions for transfers is less than 10 per year. Go to the admissions site, maybe talk to an admissions person - it's worth looking into. |
