Government and Molecular Biology & Biochemistry Double Major at Wesleyan

<p>I understand that a lot of people double major at Wesleyan, as they don't offer minors. Would it be a terrible idea to double major in Government and MB&B with premed requirements?
The two hardly overlap, and the premed requirements would be another burden (although most of them would be covered by MB&B). Any thoughts?</p>

<p>This is doable, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. Your goal should be to major in departments that are the most academically enjoyable and rewarding to you. I would recommend that you to take a varied selection of classes before you commit yourself to a difficult and inflexible academic schedule. (This is encouraged by Wesleyan’s distribution “requirements.”) So take a couple gov and mb&b classes but don’t decide just yet. By the time you need to declare a major you’ll have a better sense of what you like and also how strenuous a schedule you can handle.</p>
