<p>Right now, I'm pursuing premed with a major in international health. Based on courses this semester, I've decided to change my major to something more policy/government/economic focused, but I'm not sure if I want to continue premed.</p>

<p>Basically, the major I'm interested in is Science, Technology, and International Affairs. I'm interested in the security concentration, which has to do with terrorism and intelligence analysis. Premed and this major are possible, but I'm just not sure if it would be worth it. I mean, if I don't have to take organic chemistry and physics, I'd be ecstatic. The only thing is that I really enjoy human biology, chemistry, and math. I'm just not sure what to do.</p>

<p>It sounds like you are in the NHS. Are you thinking of an internal transfer to the SFS? STIA + Pre-Med is pretty extreme. Each on their own have ridiculous requirements. I guess it just depends on how much choice you want with your classes. I have friends doing this and their biggest complaint is lack of flexibility, in order to stay on course, and graduate in four years.</p>
