Is it possible???
Can i finish in 4 years???
Im pre-med...</p>
<p>Depending on the person yeah, but can I ask why you want to do that?</p>
<p>Don’t do the double major. Study physics. Chemistry is lame.</p>
<p>Ahem, chemistry beats physics anyday. In all seriousness, the major is doable, assuming you are an extremely dedicated individual.</p>
<p>If you love it enough…</p>
<p>Doable, yes. Advisable, no. Double majoring is a huge time commitment in things that are as differently oriented as physics and chem. This is time that you could be doing ECs and research. I would suggest taking physics as a minor, or vice versa, at the very most.</p>
<p>What are your reasons for the double major, if i may ask?</p>
<p>I assume that the requirments will overlap since they are both sicence courses, but IDK why you wouldn’t wanna stick to just one.</p>
<p>only do it if you are really passionate about both. Don’t do it thinking that you’re actually going to impress a medschool adcom.</p>
<p>I was actually just checking it out for myself to see if I wanted to try it, but it wasn’t looking too promising. I just entered the cores for each into a graduation planner, and it was an average of about 15 credits a semester, which close to the suggested number for all classes, including the lib eds. I was hoping they overlapped a little more, considering they were both physical sciences, but they don’t hardly at all. And I guess I’m not sure how beneficial it would be to have them both. The job ranges are pretty different.</p>
<p>I’m thinkin’ it comes down to math. I think if you love math then physics is the one, but if you’re more a fan of the conceptual stuff, chemistry is where it’s at. My guess would be that chem is better for the medical field.</p>
<p>Forget both. Go into biophysics.</p>

<p>You can do it in four years if you start that way. I did it in five but didn’t decide to do it until my fourth year, when I changed by physics minor to a major and add a mathematical science minor. I found it very helpful when I went to graduate school. It also lets you see many things from two different point of views. Physicist and chemist look at some of the same problems but differently. You do have to be strong in math or you will go crazy in most of your physics class and in physical chemistry, and many other chemistry classes. </p>
<p>GO FOR IT.</p>
<p>Doable, yes. Pointless, extremely.</p>
