I am a CUNY college junior student, currently studying double majors on computer science and applied math with a GPA 3.76. Probably graduate next year.
Right now I am thinking about going to a medical school(NY area); unfortunately, I don't have all the pre-med courses , which means I might need take three or four semesters to complete all pre-med courses.
I want keep my degree on computer science, further more studying pre-med courses.
Is this a good idea for me to do that.
one more thing, for med school I want to do Oncology because of some personal experience.

Yes, you can do it. With a solid mcat and GPA in prereq courses, you will be a good applicant if your motivations and experiences lie in the right places.

Im a freshman CS and Comp. Bio major, so I have my schedule a little different....I am taking all premed reqs in four semesters, so it is definitely doable.

As far as oncology goes, make sure medical school is right for you, and get to medical school first.
