BS in multiple science

Just wondering if anyone ever got a BS in multiple science on this forum? At this point, if I was to switch to this degree I could graduate a year earlier than expected, and have a broader background in science.

Do grad schools mind a broad science background vs. specialization?

Why the hell not? Take all the pre-reqs and get the higest GPA you can.

Best to do less and do good, than to do more and do bad.

I'm a BS in General Biology and Chemistry with an emphasis in Biochemistry. It will take me one extra year, but has allowed me to demonstrated my competency in Calculus (I got a C+ my first semester because I didn't turn in my homework) and also given me a ton more classes to tack on to my BCPM GPA.

I'm sorry for those I confused, another name is a "BS in natural science". I know medical schools wouldn't necessarily frown upon this major, but do you think grad schools would see it as too broad?

One typically chooses a concentration in one of the natural sciences for this major, I guess mine is chem.

Most grad school programs expect that you will have taken a sufficient number of classes in your chosen field. In your case, if you know enough to do well on the Chem GRE and fulfill the school's minimum requirements for admission, you should at least have a reasonable chance.

Well in case you don't get to med school, what will you be entitle to do?
