I feel that learning about the Earth Sciences is a lot more fun, than general biology, chem..etc. If i take this as a major, will med schools look down upon cuz it was easier or is it even easier than bio,chem..etc.. I'm not really sure yet if i want to do it thought..im contemplating on either this, biology...and trying to find something else that i like, but im not really interested in anything..still trying to keep an open mind...

You can major in whatever you like as long as you take the required perequisites for medical school. So, you'll be taking biology and chemistry whether you like it or not if you want to get into medical school.

Most physicians major in science, though, but you don't have to. Hell, you could be a theater major and still apply to medical school.

I think this is a great idea. Med schools get tired of seeing the same ol' biology pre-meds. Do earth sciences if it makes you happy. It won't hurt you at all. Just get a good GPA and do well on the MCAT and you're set.
