I met a pediatrician at the gym once, she also has a phd in immunology (got it before going to med school). When I asked her what she'd have done differently she said " I should have majored in something like Psychology in college. It would have been a whole lot more helpful to me than my immunology doctorate has been."

It doesn't matter what you major in, but there are a few pre-requisite courses that you have to take in order to get admission (depending on which country you applying in).

Australia has no prereqs. You can take their entrance exam for grad entry, the GAMSAT -- it's an aptitude test, unlike the MCAT. About 1/3 of my class (Queensland) has no science background.
