Hello Megan,
You need to focus on all science based subjects, including, Mathematics and Computer Science, even your knowledge in physics, biology and chemistry, needs to be strong.
Taking extra classes in coding and statistics will help you and make you a better Medical Engineer, because as a Medical Engineer you are needed to be shape and smart in the areas of medicine and Clinical’s and should come with innovations and improvements that will make the medical world more advanced and easier, with the creation of softwares, equipments and lots more that will help in diagnosis and also help to make treatments more easier.

The world have seen many innovations in the field you are aspiring to go into, and you can do better and make a difference in the field, but to be different, one needs to be shape and to know what he is to do and how to go about it, so the education and knowledge is required but the approach and zeal for it matters more.
Wishing you a great career and success in your career of choice.
Stay blessed.

aditi’s Answer

High school preparation for biomedical engineering would include four years of math (through pre-calculus), one year each of physics, chemistry and biology. Most universities also expect the prospective Biomedical Engineer to have 4 years of English and a mix of social studies and language courses which comprise a strong pre-college curriculum.

Yash Vardhan’s Answer

Bio-engineering roles typically require applications from various scientific and engineering disciplines. I cannot emphasize enough on being Math heavy (with focus on Linear algebra, Calculus when you get to it) - This will make everything easier, and then strong fundamentals in Physics, Programming, Biology and Some Chemistry.

Mark’s Answer

Because bioengineering is heavy in mathematics and scientific based subjects, as with other engineering disciplines, concentration on mathematics and science courses in high is an advantage. Trigonometry, geometry, calculus, physics and chemistry would be suggested to focus on in high school. I hope this helps answer your question.
