<p>I`ve been thinking about the different possibilities I will have for a major in college, and I wanted to know, would it be reasonable to consider doing BME as a major and also pursuing Pre-Med classes?</p>
<p>Certainly reasonable is relative; I think it’s completely reasonable. However, if you follow this route, do be sure you’re 100% go for med school, 'cause the world don’t look too pretty out there for a BS in BME.</p>
<p>so would you say BME is not a successful path to take? In terms of a career?
because I`m kinda divided as to what I should do.</p>
<p>As somewhat still a college first year, I can’t help but wonder if any major will get me a job after graduation. Older people love to ask, “What’re you going to do with that?” Which is such an odd question that it becomes absolutely ludicrous. No major or degree guarantees job security “in this economy.” So, I eloquently say, eff it and do what you love!(?)</p>
<p>Nope, I’m not saying anything of the like. What I’m saying is this: if you were to end up not going to med school, a BS in BME would not suffice for a position as a Biomedical Engineer; a BS would land you a spot in sales or other non-technical position. Companies that hire biomedical engineers generally require you to have a graduate degree in BME, preferably a PhD.</p>
<p>Ad. com rep at local Med. College praised BMEs as Med. School applicants. He said they are beeter prepared know more about workings of the body and preferred over other majors at least at this pecific Med. School. Everybody knows that engineering in general are the hardest majors and people have to be not only smart but also with great working habits to complete any engineering major with high GPA. I am just a messanger here, repeating what I heard.</p>
<p>And what of biochem, the rep didn’t mention anything about it?</p>
<p>No. Whole presentation was at UG college of engineering, they have combined bs/md, which was the reason for Med School prof. to be there.</p>
<p>OK, I actually didn`t know that! Thanks :)</p>
