<p>So I'm debating whether I should make French or Biology my major as I enter college this fall. I've always been good with the sciences but foreign languages (4 years of HS french) have been plain easy for me. I want to go to medical school and I know that I have to keep a VERY high GPA if I want to enter the top ones. I've heard that foreign language majors have a MUCH easier time keeping straight A GPAs even at the Ivies whereas Biology and Chemistry major have to truly struggle to get through all of those required science major weeder courses with a 3.75-3.8 GPA.</p>
<p>I've also heard that medical schools like humanities majors who have completed the pre-med requirements while maintaining a good GPA. Becoming a french major while completing the pre-med requirements just sounds less stressful so that I'll actually have SOME time to enjoy college a little bit rather than studying all the time. </p>
<p>Does anyone with more experience have anything to add?</p>
<p>Could someone also comment on the difficulty of HS French vs. College-level French classes?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
