Of course you can declare a major in Bio!!
However… I would recommend that you shouldn’t be so narrow-minded about what you want to do… if you do well in Bio in college (or got 5 on the AP)… major in it. Otherwise, find something else!!

I don’t know how well you’d do on Chem or Lit… but since you got 800 on IIC… I am going to bet that you would do pretty well on Chem… since a lot of the questions are math-oriented.

Also I’ve seen people with less than 1400 get into all of the schools on your list… but that doesn’t mean it isn’t hard to get in.

Also I’m not sure if you have the ‘Ivy mentality’ or not… but the most difficult school to get into on your list is NOT an Ivy… many non-Ivies such as MIT, Caltech, Stanford, Duke, Amherst, Pomona, and Harvey Mudd beat most of the Ivies in terms of important factors such as SAT averages.

Good luck next year!
