No but I am currently a Mech.Eng. student at Binghamton. I considered majoring in Bioengineering (Soon to be BioMed Engineering) but decided against that with teh advice of many on CC.

The thread you linked makes sense. You should study a more traditional engineering discipline first. For example, I am majoring in Mechaical Engineering and my plan is to eventually get a Masters degree in Mech. Eng. followed by a Ph.D in Biomedical Engineering or simply get a Masters in Biomedical Engineering.

Studying a traditional engineering field as an undergraduate gives you a better base in engineering.
