Majors

<p>Hey guys, i know that you can choose any major you are passionate for, but I recently became interested in religious studies, would top med-schools look down on me, for choosing this humanities type of major? Thanks in advance</p>

<p>No. (10char)</p>

<p>No, med. schools don't care what your major is as long as your MCAT/GPA & pre. reqs. are all there..</p>

<p>Got a question similar to the one above. Do med schools look down on students who choose not to minor? I am contemplating on doing a joint major and may not have the schedule face for a minor if I decided to do it. Thanks.</p>

<p>They don't care about minors.</p>

<p>hey guys, sorry for reviving this thread, but won't religious studies be considered an "easy" major. Won't med schools ask why you chose an "easy" major. Thanks in advance</p>

<p>I don't understand why people persist in thinking that humanities = easy.</p>

<p>med schools can't talk but if your interviewer happens to ask you this (which is highly unlikely) you should just explain your interest in the major and how it helps you achieve your ultimate goal of becoming a doctor. noone will ever fault you for pursuing your interests </p>

<p>typically a humanities major is easier than a basic science or an engineering major....however this does not mean that any one is more or less useful than the other.</p>

<p>^I tend to disagree. A humanities major just requires different thinking. Eh, it's all subjective.</p>

<p>Is it possible to have a Chemical Engineering major and still take pre-med required courses? Or would that be very difficult?</p>

<p>your chem E major will basically take care of most of your premed requirements so you'd probably only need to take a couple of classes in addition to your major. that means it's in fact easier to complete premed requirements as a chem E.</p>

<p>Thanks Shraf.</p>
