bio, chem, physics, and math are general subjects.

bcpm includes ALL science courses, from geology to immunology to organic chemistry to bioorganic chemistry to astronomy to anything that is science related.

Note, however, it does not include any engineering classes...even if they may be obviously science classes. As an example, my molecular physical chemistry class is not included in BCPM GPA cause it is through the bioengineering department. Kinda sucks, but oh well.

yeah, my advisor said that engineering classes can be physics.

And yes, neuroscience classes can be biology.
