<p>In 2 years i want to transfer from a CA community college and hopefully to berkeley. If i want to study medicine(AND I KNOW BERKELEY DOES NOT HAVE A MED SCHOOL), do u guys recomend i major in "Molecular and Cell Biology - Immunology B.A." OR
"Molecular and Cell Biology - Biochemistry and Molecular Biology B.A"? These are the 2 majors that Berkeley offers that interests me(Assist.org)</p>

<p>OH!! and can someone plz explain what the difference in majoring in "Immunolgy" and "Biochemistry and Molecular Biology" is? I want to be a pysician.

Immunology is a broad branch of biomedical science that covers the study of all aspects of the immune system in all organisms. It deals with, among other things, the physiological functioning of the immune system in states of both health and disease; malfunctions of the immune system in immunological disorders (autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivities, immune deficiency, transplant rejection); the physical, chemical and physiological characteristics of the components of the immune system in vitro, in situ, and in vivo.

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes in living organisms. It deals with the structure and function of cellular components, such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules.

Molecular biology is the study of biology at a molecular level. The field overlaps with other areas of biology and chemistry, particularly genetics and biochemistry. Molecular biology chiefly concerns itself with understanding the interactions between the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis and learning how these interactions are regulated.
