Pre-Med & Medical School High School Student Topics

<p>HI, im going to be a freshman in college and im considering premed as my major. I heard that premed is not a major, but a path to a medical school. People who choose premed as their career usually pick classes like biology or chemistry..</p>

<p>But, I dont understand. Whats the difference if you just simply major in biology or if you are planning to take biology as your major to premed?</p>

<p>Also, if im planning on doing premed, what other classes should I take during the first year?</p>

<p>You should definitely take general Chemistry, so that you can take Organic Chemistry next year. Also take calculus.</p>

<p>Not much, if any, for course selections.</p>

<p>The bigger difference is if you do pre-med with a non-biology major (e.g. history, economics, math, etc.), in which case you may be able to spread out the pre-med courses in your schedule more than if you need to take them early for majoring in biology.</p>
