Changing my major from Pre-Pharmacy to Biology Pre-Med?

[rah123456789]

I'm currently a freshman majoring in Pre-Pharmacy(it is a major @ my school) and was planning on applying to pharmacy school after my sophomore year. I even started preparing for the PCAT. In the past few months, I shadowed a few pharmacists (retail, hospital, clinical specialists and I also shadowed physicians (OBGYN, Oncologist). I realize that medical school is harder to get into than pharmacy school and it takes more time/dedication but I'm willing to work hard.
My current GPA is 3.825. Is it too late to change my major and start preparing for medical school? If it's not too late, any advice about preparing for med school (clinical experience, when should I start studying for the MCAT, average GPA..etc)?

You already have a solid GPA for most any medical school, anything higher is great of course.

Do well on the MCAT and get significant clinical experience (Volunteering, Work, Research, Shadowing) and you'll be golden. Research is always a bonus. If you have all this up and running by the end of your Junior year no one will ever know you were even pre-pharm unless you want them to know, as I imagine nearly all the prerequisite courses are the exact same anyways.
