BIOMEDICAL TRACK
        This track begins with a two-semester sophomore course in molecular and cellular biology that includes extensive laboratory experience in the major modern techniques in this area of biology. Popular upper division electives in the track include courses in immunology, cancer biology, biochemistry, and advanced microbiology. This track is especially recommended for premedical students, those considering graduate school in biomedical research and for those interested in biotechnology. A minimum combined SAT score of 1200 or equivalent is strongly recommended for this option. Here is a list of the requirements for the Biomedical track:
