What does one do if their major is not listed in the list of majors on the on-line application form?


I was molecular genetics an the closest thing is microbio and bio and I don't really want to put either of those because they certainly are not the same.





thanks

Wait a minute! Molecular genetics, Buckeye, Columbus, YOUR CRAIG KRENZEL AREN'T YOU! :laugh: Seriously I don't know the answer to this question, but perhaps you should contact them and ask them what you are supposed to put down.

Hey Adrian,

Molecular Genetics is not on that list. I would list your major as biology. Dont list it as other unless AACOM instructs you to do so. If you list Biology, they will look at your transcripts and see what classes you have taken. You should also include something in your personall statement about you being a molecular genetisist. You could squeeze that in to the PS. If you have any more questions, just let me know.

Actually, I had all my MG classes with him. He's an ass.
 
No, he was "favored" He is not as smart as he is made out to be.


I dont want to list my major as bio, MG was/is a much harder major then bio or micro at OSU. That is common knowldege on this campus.
