<p>I know I definitely want to go to medical school, but also I hear a lot of people saying major in something you'll love and be good at-- finance, plus if I didn't end up as a doctor it's another field I'd be interested in (or something in the math or more tech areas.) So... I have pretty good stats and plan on applying to Stern for finance- has anyone gone through this? Will I have enough room/ experience in science for med school? Do buisness/ finance majors have decent acceptance? any advice?? please help me! =)</p>
<p>Finance, as a major, is not a great idea for medical school. I'm not sure whether the finance schedule at Stern would allow you to take pre-med coursework, either. Furthermore, to actually get a job in finance, you'll have to spend your summers doing internships and such. Those summer activities aren't going to impress a med school adcom. As I see it, in this situation you'll have to choose to spend your time in college in one way or the other - prepping for a career in finance or prepping for a future in medicine.</p>
<p>If you're certain about wanting to be pre-med, you'd be better off majoring in economics at CAS.</p>
<p>You definitely want to go to Med School, but when majoring in something you love, you choose finance. Why not just concentrate solely on finance then?</p>
