Major determination (pre-med and business)

<p>Hi,
My daughter has been accepted to Johns Hopkins, Cornell University, Unversity of Chicago, etc. We have had a hard time deciding which major my daughter is supposed to major in. </p>

<p>She would love to become a doctor specializing in cancer patients (esp. for young children). We are scared about a biomedical engineering major because I heard that one must have a tremendously high GPA to get into medical school and I’m scared that my daughter cannot get this at Cornell (because it is so competitive, etc). Princeton review says that there are only 16,000 spots for medical school admissions are available each year. So many people work on pre-med program each year and it is so hard to enter medical school. </p>

<p>She had always been interested in finance ever since she took Statistics AP in high school. My daughter does not know what to decide about her future major, which is related to her choosing a college too. As you can see, we are greatly torn between these two majors. Maybe we need to think about other majors such as economics, bioengineering, etc. So, if I could receive some insights on our problems, it’d be fantastic.</p>

<p>Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,</p>
