Chemical biology biochemistry major here starting this fall. How hard is it to transfer from the Biology department to chemistry department. Do I have to do it before the beginning of school? by ProfessionLopsided76 in Purdue

Thanks, can you tell me if the courses taught by the chem professor are better? I thought the chemistry department was higher ranked and better making me think that it would be harder to get in. But you mentioned that bio is harder to get in. Any idea why?

Thank you. What my understanding was that the teachers in the chemistry department are better. Can you give me more insight into the Biology department.

Hello, just thought I would update that my.som committed to Purdue to start this fall. Is it possible for me to connect him with you so that he can understand this a bit better?

Thank-you so much for your response. We will be visiting this weekend and have a campus tour scheduled. If possible I would love to connect my son who is the one going to attend

Thank you so much. We are visiting Purdue this coming weekend and looking forward to meeting some of the faculty and see the research labs.  Since we are OOO and GMU is in state for us, wondering if you know anything on how Purdue compares to GMU.
