Bio-medical Engineering is best pursued at the graduate level. A B.S. degree in Bio-medical engineering will yield less desirable job opportunities than most other engineering degrees. There are an ample amount of physics, mathematics, and biology classes in an undergraduate curriculum. Just like any other engineering major, bio-medical engineering majors must work very hard in order to do well in their classes.

Medical schools take into account the difficulty of engineering compared to other subject areas when computing their GPA standards for each respective major.

An Engineering GPA of 3.5 is approximately equivalent to a Biology GPA of 3.9
