<p>After countless people telling me yes they do/ no they don't...I still don't know the story on this.</p>
<p>Last year, I applied with biological sciences as my major, with an emphasis on pre-pharmacy. Many people told me that was a horrible choice, and would proabably be extremely hard to get into.</p>
<p>Im transferring as a one-year student now...what is the best thing to do?
Im ultimately hoping to get into the school of dentistry, and I've heard any major is applicable. Is it true that some majors will give more of a chance of you getting accepted? Like PoliSci. or business administration?</p>
<p>bump please? I really want to know about this!</p>
<p>Of course. The people that told you otherwise don't know what they're talking about. Although this applies primarily to public schools, some majors are more coveted and as a result are harder to get into. Sometimes people cheat the system by applying to an unpopular major and then switching once they're in the school.</p>
<p>I know at UC-Berkeley (I'm a Californian) the engineering program is a lot harder to get into than say...the Latin American studies program perhaps? (Please I'm using it simply as a potential example)</p>
<p>Usually if you show on your application a certain passion/dedication to a certain line of work/study and then apply to that particular program, your chances raise (in most cases)</p>
<p>A science/math contest champion who applies to a chemistry or engineering major has a better shot than an accomplished writer or perhaps linguist. (But hey if you embody all of these qualities, bravo!)</p>
<p>Any examples of some "universally" accepted easy majors? USC's school of dentistry (what I want to eventually attend) accepts any major...what is a safe bet? Do I neccesarily HAVE to go with something about bio or chem?</p>
<p>And what about going undecided....is that bad for a one-year transfer? Like going undeclared with a pre-dentistry emphasis?</p>
