<p>If I am reading your post correctly you are going to be a college freshman next year. If so, you don’t need to select a major at most schools until the end of your sophomore year; your first two years will be spent with core requirements at many if not most schools. That said, if you intend to add a pre-med concentration you will need to start taking some sciences freshman year and certainly more during sophomore year but at the same time you could major in ANYTHING you want…English, Poli Sci, etc after taking a few classes and “figuring out” what you really like and what would be of interest to you.</p>

<p>Enjoy the rest of your senior year…</p>

<p>First, Psychologist (PhD/PsyD) ≠ physician (MD/DO).
Second, you’re still in HS. Go to college. Get good grades. Pick a major… Once you’re done w/ HS, come ask these questions.
You need to get some life experience and try things to see what interests you.</p>
