  4. Hey everyone, this thread is so helpful, wow I am glad I found it. I was wondering if anyone could give me insight on how my stats stack up, and if I should take additional classes/GRE over again to improve my application. So I'll start with back In college I was immature and naive and did not think much about my future prospects. Parent's are alcoholics, and I felt I never really grew up or matured until now. I went to a state school and graduated in 2014 with a B.S. in Biochemistry and Mol Bio with a 2.8 GPA. Pretty bad I know. It was mainly my junior and senior year that I did not do well.I do have research experience, from an internship at a prestigious university/hospital and at an undergraduate independent study in microbial fuel cells at my school which I finished in my senior year. I have been working for nearly two years at a medical device company as a junior scientist - I work to develop immunoassay based tests and I have learned so much in a short time. I have been deciding for a long time what I wanted to study, but I am so fearful of having a really low GPA. I took the GRE's with a 154V and 159Q and also fear this is really low. Is it recommended I aim for 160s? I have taken it two times. I feel now I have the maturity and experience for this rigorous discipline and in the past I really did not. I know there are a bunch of courses I need to take which I haven't: Diff EQ, MV Calc, Engineering, ect. I am taking Diff EQ and MV Calc this fall at a community college, with hopes of BU LEAP in Summer or Fall 2017. With A's do you think I would have a good shot? Does anyone know of admission rates to the program? I know they have an excellent BME program which is very competitive so I am wondering if my stats/experience would make me a formidable candidate. Thank you.
