<p>when putting in my deposit, i chose Biology as my intended major.</p>
<p>i only chose this because after reading about the department, i thought it was broad enough for me to see what i can truly excel in and learn from. i was thinking about the BS degree in cellular and molecular biology.</p>
<p>admittedly, im a more quantitatively analytical person, so i was originally considering Biophysics or Biomolecular Engineering.</p>
<p>what should i do?</p>
<p>Did you consider the Public Health Studies major? That’s a pretty broad major and would also prepare you for med school.</p>
<p>Regardless of what you put on the form, you are officially “no declared major.” Most students don’t actually declare a major until sophomore year, and there is no need to do so prior to the end of sophomore year. So try a variety of different areas out and you will be in a better position to decide as you go along.</p>
<p>You don’t need to pick your major based on your desire to go to med school. You can major in absolutely anything and still go to med school. I agree with bonanza - explore a bit and see what area you find interesting. If you decide you love German literature (as a random example), there’s nothing keeping you from majoring in that and still going to med school</p>
<p>take a wide range of things freshman year and you’ll find something. be open-minded and you may find something you love that you didn’t know you did.</p>
<p>gl and congrats on your decision</p>
