<p>I am currently attending a community college, cumulative GPA 4.0 with 20+ units. Should end up with a 3.9 or so overall when I'm ready to transfer.</p>
<p>I have a strong interest in law and medicine, I am not sure which route I want to go. Here are my thoughts...</p>
<p>Major in a science (bio), take a few philosophy classes, study for the LSAT. Take MCAT/LSAT (that is if I haven't decided). I have always done very well in English as well as science/math.</p>
<p>Here's the question... Microbiology, chemical biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, ETC. Where do I go? I need to declare a major, and start taking required classes. How do I find out what would be best to major in?</p>
<p>why not just major in general biology? then take classes in all different areas of biology so that you can figure out your passion. no medical school is going to penalize you for majoring in biology, and law schools aren't picky about major.</p>
<p>Law and medicine are some very different professions. The few things common in them is good pay, high prestige, and job security. You should perhaps do some informational interviewing and shadowing to see which you prefer.</p>
<p>Both law and medical schools don't care about major. You should major in 1) what you find interesting and 2) what you can get good grades in. Chances are, what you find interesting is also what you can get good grades in. So ask yourself: what motivates you? what kind of knowledge will you enjoy seeking even if grades and credit were not an issue?</p>

<p>While both law and medical schools don't care what your major is, it is also important to note medical schools require you to have a particular set of classes</p>
