Some advice if you visit:

Beforehand, set up an interview with the head of Chemistry department (where the Biochemistry degree is housed). In the interview, be specific on what you want to study (ex: cell communication in a disease environment or whatever). Do a little reading up on that specialty before the interview.

BE PASSIONATE in the interview; come across as KNOWING what you want to study and that you will thrive in an environment where the curriculum is tailored to YOU.

Set up an interview with (or just stop by) the HTC office and be curious (and excited) about the program.

Like I said, your stats speak for themselves, but the two things they are looking for are PASSION about a subject and DRIVE (independent, driven person).
