Hey guys - was hoping I can get some advice and feedback here. I have a cousin who is in his senior year and about to apply for college. He's pretty set on pharmacy school after college as his future. We were talking about what majors he will apply to the California UC schools (we are living in California). Each school lets you choose two majors. And high school GPA is excellent; science 4.00, overall weighted 4.5+. SAT around 2150, subject tests still ongoing. He's concerned if he applies to a competitive major he won't get in and won't get into the school (eg bioengineering or physiological science at UCLA, biomedical engineering at UCI or UCSD).
So basically he wants a major easy to get into and help him get into pharmacy school. He's thinking biology or chemistry instead. Any advice you can give that I can pass along? Everyone here is probably in college or applying to pharmacy school so they'd know the system. I know it's easy to say apply to the major you want, and you can always switch later, or apply to a major you like because you might be disinterested in pharmacy in the future, but we'll assume he's set on pharmacy. Thanks everyone.
