Unfair or not, med schools don't have the time/resources to know how rigorous a major is at most schools. The same thing happens with kinesiology majors. At many schools, it's sort of a science-lite major. I've heard that at UMich, it's a rigorous major (just been told that, don't know if true). Unless med schools know that UMich has a rigorous program, they may likely perceive the major as a coaching major or PE teacher major. I know that a number of PrePT students major in kinesiology or exercise science, but it seems that DPT programs are used to seeing that.
oh, I doubt attitudes will change any time soon. lol
by the end of the day, you can get into medical school with a degree in creative writing so im not really worried about what adcoms will think of me. Especially if i decide to apply to the medical school im getting my CLS degree in UMDSOM
