I always hear schools saying they like to see upper division bio.... what classes are these exactly?

Outside of gen bio 1/2, I also took...

Microbio, physiology, epidemiology....would this be considered upper level bio classes?

Typically, biology courses that have course numbers that start with a "3" or higher.

Edit: Check with your school to make sure as this may vary from school to school. Thanks for reminding me that @Spica

Sounds like upper level bio classes, but you should look at the specific school requirements. For example, UIC counts 200-level (so sophomore level, technically) classes towards the upper-level bio requirement.
