I wish to study Film and Pre-Med at NYU, but I’m not sure how well that’d work out. I plan on transferring in for my sophomore year (will start in the summer!!) and am currently taking Biology and Film classes at Stony Brook University. Will it work for me? Or will I die with too much work? Should I minor in film or should I study at Gallatin or should I minor in Bio?
Also, could I take extra classes? For example, I want to take a couple of psychology classes just because I’m a bit interested. Or will I look like a nutcase? Currently not sure. Please help!!
Thank you very much.
(I also plan on taking maybe one or two classes for a summer or two in between semesters or even studying abroad in London, would that just ruin everything??)
If you could take the required pre-med courses, do well in them and get good MCAT marks, that would be a very intriguing application. Taking the Psych would not make you look like a nutcase.
Taking classes abroad is fine, but the biggest pitfall there is getting out of synch with your major or graduation requirements.
Remember, you need to show some evidence of excelling in the film portion as a matter of course.
