I'm currently a Junior in Biology with a Molecular/Biomed (B.S) concentration. I'm striving for a second major in Biochemistry, as it is not that many more courses, and I find myself enjoying chemistry more than biology sometimes.
At the moment I'm trying to figure out my options for graduate school. I was wondering if it's possible for someone like myself to get into a (non-biochem) Chemistry program, like organic or physical chemistry, for example.
Will they even care about any of my bio undergrad research (I'll be doing research on RNA and viruses this semester) or do I need to do pure chemistry research to stand out? Also, I'm not sure if it matters, but I have a 4.0 GPA (knock on wood), but my school isn't prestigious by any means.
I don't want to hear about eligibility for biochemistry programs. Some places list biochemistry under their biology programs instead of chemistry. My question is specifically about non-bio Chemistry
P.S. I read somewhere that non-biochem fields require more math. Right now I've taken AP calculus AB in High School (I got a 5), and an A in Calc III in college. Is that enough or do I need to take another class or two? Thanks in advance.
