Both will have the same amount. If you are asking and choosing the one with the least amount, my advice is to not do anything in the science field.. unless you are looking to help the curve

isn't marine bio usually more of a grad school focus?

I know several people who have bio majors but work as marine biologists. I think it's easier to major in bio but focus on and take classes that a marine bio major would. That way, if you can't get a job you want in marine bio, you could always fall back on your more general biology major and try tons of other related fields. JMO.

Depends entirely on the school, focus/concentration, teachers, work ethic, ability, strengths, weaknesses, etc.

Might as well ask which is better; chocolate or vanilla.
