Hey guys…I just got off the waitlist to Columbia yeasterday so now I’m torn between Duke and Columbia. I want to study biomedical engineering and eventually go to med school. I know the BME program at Duke is very well known but I really don’t know that much about BME at Columbia. If anyone has any information about BME at Columbia or any other general info that may influence my decision, please share. Also, how great is the competition? How hard is it to maintain a GPA that would make me a competitive applicant to the top 20 med schools? I have to respond to Columbia by May 9 so I need as much information I can get in order to make the best decision. Thanks!! (lastly, are there a lot of korean at Columbia? juz curious…)
