  1. I want to go into biotechnology industry laboratory management/ product development/ manufacturing and quality control. The reason why I'm doing a Masters instead of an MBA, is that I'm still in a dilemma between choosing a career in academia (if so I would continue to do pHD) or industry.

Here are my info: Undergrad Institution: UCDavisMajor(s): BiotechnologyMinor(s): Technology ManagementGPA in Major: Not sure. Overall GPA: 3.19 (Yeah i know its low. But I did well in my Ochem, Chem and Math classes [As/Bs])Position in Class: Not sure. Type of Student: International, FemaleGRE Scores (revised/old version): Gonna take it this year. Right now Im taking Magoosh and my estimated scores are Q155 and V150 (Super low I know, but Im gonna try to study as hard as I can to reach at least 160 for both) is that even possible? haha.Q:V:W:B:Research Experience: 1 year at a reputable plant internship, about half a year at a Stem Cells Research lab. Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Dean's list for a quarter, Scholarship recipient from my home country (full tuition paid)Pertinent Activities or Jobs: Currently working in pharmaceutical industry field learning about business aspects of biotechnology, particularly in the sales and marketing department.

Any Other Info That Shows Up On Your App and Might Matter: Applying to Where:1) University of San Francisco - Professional Science Masters in Biotechnology 2) Georgetown University Medical Center - Masters in Biotechnology (includes BioBusiness track which is cool) 3) McGill University - Masters in Biotechnology (CANADA) 4) UPenn - Professional Master's Biotechnology (more academic) 5) NYU Tandon School of Engineering - MS in Biotech +/- Enterprenuership 6) Columbia University - MA in Biotechnology Am I shooting too high? I have a feeling most of the schools are hard to get into. I wanna have a good and balanced mix of low/med/high tier schools. Also, what do you think I can improve on right now before applying for the schools? Is there any other schools I should consider for safety nets? Thanks so much!
  3. Hi guys, I'm planning to pursue Masters of Science in Biotechnology in the US. My question is what are some of the tier 2 biotechnology graduate programs available in the US? I've been coming up with a list of Biotech programs and wanted to make sure I included some Tier 2 programs. So far google's been really persistent to show me only Top/ tier 1 programs like UPenn, UCSF, etc... Help a brother out here Thanks!
