<p>Could you imagine this? The most work intensive major at this kind of school! Holy poop!</p>
<p>Actually, pre-med isn't the most work intensive major. That would probably be chemical engineering or electrical engineering. Pre-med is the most competitive major, because grades are so important for grad-school. Pre-meds here are really just bio students who intend to enroll in med school (and therefore have to watch their grades).</p>
<p>I know a lot of my bio friends would have loved to have had this program in place 4 years ago. Many of them had a lot of trouble getting into med school when they applied this last year.</p>
<p>Chemical engineering and electrical engineering seem to be the most work intensive majors. (Edit: beaten)</p>
<p>For biology majors, the pre-med requirements (typically one year of english, physics, calculus, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and biology, with labs in the sciences) can be fulfilled almost entirely within the institute graduation and major requirements. The only exceptions are a physics lab and an organic chemistry lab, both of which can easily be fit into one's schedule. Chemistry majors can also fulfill the pre-med requirements almost entirely within their major requirements as well; only two terms of biology are needed. </p>
<p>I have a friend who was a pre-med in electrical engineering, but I don't know how he did it since electrical engineering is known to be an intense major and the intersection of the pre-med requirements and the electrical engineering requirements is 0 (the english, physics, inorganic chemistry, and math can be covered by core requirements).</p>
