Microbiology or biochemistry major for pharmacology?

<p>Im currently a chemistry major counting the seconds to change my major to microbiology. After starting a research project in a pharmacology lab, I've become increasingly interested in the field. I've looked up pre-reqs.for a lot of pharmacology schools all over and id fulfill them with either major (UChicago, UNC-CH, CWRU, Emory ,etc.) so does it make any difference which subject I choose to major in? I just personally like biology better and find the upper level classes to be more interesting.</p>

<p>I'd want to get my PhD and get a job in my home city that has a good concentration of top hospitals and universities that's likely to grow given current investments made by the local government which would bring even more money and attention and resources to there area. </p>

<p>Also, it'd take me longer to finish my undergrad degree as a biochem or chem major than microbiology...if that makes any difference.</p>

<p>Honestly, I don’t think it matters. Most schools aren’t that particular as long as you’ve had some basic courses for prep and some upper level science to show you can hack it in a grad level setting. If you’d enjoy micro more, by all means do that. (Graduating sooner is a nice bonus too.)</p>
