Biology is very broad. Is there an area you focused on?

really depends on your school reputation + GPA.

State school + average GPA = realistically speaking, biology teacher at a private high school.

you would probably need to go to grad school to work in lab and looking for jobs at craiglist/monster.com means that you are likely to do works that has little to do with biology (ex. sales man, taking phone calls etc.)..

You need a masters for teaching

Nothing really. The best you can do is an entry lab technician...as long as you know the basic techniques +/- animal handling.

A dreamer graduated from Harvard with BA in Biology can teach at private high school without Master's. 100% sure.

I have a friend with a B.S. in biology and she's a lab tech III and I think she started as a lab tech I when she graduated. Most of the jobs in my area are that of lab techs or research assistants.

Why the B.A. and not the B.S.? Just wondering.

I was a pre-med biology student at the University of Texas @ austin 4.0 gpa.
I did b.a. because my adviser said it didn't really matter if I did B.A. or B.S. as long as I took the pre-requisites for medical schools, so I decided to take a bunch of psychology classes because it's an interesting subject.
