From your posts, I'm assuming you don't have a bachelor's degree yet. What you learn from gen eds is how to think and write in ways that are not covered in the pre-reqs. Those skills are important for doctors every bit as much as what bio they know.
Only one of the goals of the selection process is to predict the applicant's success in medical school. Another goal is to select applicants that will make good doctors after medical school. The ability to think, read, and write in "gen ed" ways is crucial to the second goal.
It's a really sad day when somebody thinks that English and history courses are irrelevant to medicine.
