<p>You are completely incorrect. If she wants to be an MD, DO, or DPM she should major in pre-med if available. If not she can major in Neuroscience, Bio, or Chem. Its not so much what you major in, it is more important that she takes the classes required by the Med school for matriculation. I am becoming a Pharmacist, if you major in Pharmacy that will most likely be a 2 year major not a full 4 year BS degree. You only have to take the classes required by the Pharmacy School which are a little different than Med school prerequisites. If she is serious about becoming a doctor, look into conditional acceptance (BS/MD) programs. </p>
<p>In response to a previous post, Pharmacy as well as NP and PA’s are well regarded professions in the medical field. If you have ever stepped foot in a hospital you would see that. Not everybody is willing to make the immense sacrifice it takes to become a physician. This could include not having a social life at times, and having a family later in life.</p>
