<p>I always thought that if one wanted to go to Med School one had to major is biology, chemistry or a sciences of some sort ect. Now, from what I understand one could major in history or Fine arts and get in to med school. Is this true? Also, just out of curiosity, I'm an Accounting and Finance major at U-DEL (3.85 GPA),would I be accepted to Med School?</p>
<p>You can major in whatever you want but you still need to take the prereq classes (intro bio, gen chem, orgo, physics, calc, etc.) and the MCAT to be accepted to med school.</p>
<p>Question: So I realise that humanities majors have relatively higher acceptance rates than other science majors. </p>
<p>Now is that because a very few of them apply compared to the science majors, and too many science majors apply.</p>
<p>If the above is not true, and the acceptance numbers are higher than they should be, would a premed candidate have a upper hand in admission if he is a science/humanities double M?
Would that put him into a different applicant pool altogether?</p>
<p>This would make sense if humanities majors actually had an admissions advantage:
