I want to go into med school for sure, but am undecided on the path to take in undergrad.
I have 2 options:
1) social science major & business minor
-minor consists of introductory courses in fields such as marketing, management, accounting, finance
2)economics major & social science minor
-major consists of beginner micro and macro, followed by upper level courses
if I choose this route, i have to finish the major (30 credits) within 1.5 years. this would mean taking 3-5 upper level classes each semester for the 1.5 year. i have no idea how easy or hard econ classes are, but they involve math.
I am very good at math as opposed to english, so this would not hinder me
Overall, as a future hopeful med student, i have no idea which road to take. im hoping whichever i choose will provide me with some useful business knowledge i can use in the future (maybe when opening a practice or something), and also can serve as a potential backup plan.
Correct me if im wrong, but I think 1) is better for learning how to open a practice in the future while option 2) will provide me with a better backup route. Is this right? I am 99.9% leaning towards med school, but it never hurts to have a good backup
Which option would you recommend has more weight and possibly more useful skills that I should pursue?
