Yes, I agree. That is a BS in Biology. As stated earlier, a BS degree encompasses a variety of science classes like chemistry and physics. But being my degree is General Studies and I have taken more than 30+ hours (similar to a BS degree) in Biology that does not register it as a Biology degree, just in General Studies?

IIRC, non-bio majors actually take easier versions of comparable science classes (science for non-majors) than the true bio majors. So, yes, it sounds misleading to claim a bio major when graduating general studies. It seems like you're insecure about the major in which you graduated.
