Hi all. I am a freshman planning to enter my second semester this week. I have always been interested in medicine and definitely want to be a doctor, but I am also so excited about all that a liberal arts environment has to offer. I am not really a fan of the science departments or pre-med environment at my school and I was wondering if it is a bad idea to go into college already planning to do a post bacc? I really would like to major in Economics and minor in Health and Society and do a thesis on healthcare economics in developing countries, and this just won't be possible next to all the pre-med requirements. What are the pros and cons of doing a post-bacc? Could I still be accepted into an MD/PhD in Economics/Policy if I do a post-bacc?
