For some schools the MD/PHD program is...but I think most MD/mph programs the MPH is something you decide on after your MD acceptance.is gaining acceptace to md/phd or md/mph programs really way more competitive than regular md programs?
You are probably ok then.Do you need a science degree? What if you are a social science major with significant research experience?

One of the guys in my lab got in MD/PhD with a polisci degree. Of course he did take a year off to work in a lab and had a pub in Nature.
Social science research doesn't usually count as research experience because they're generally not similar unless you're doing some hard core primate studies. I suppose if you wanted to go into psych or something then maybe, but if you're trying to get an MD/PhD in bio or biochem or whatever, then your social science research pretty much means crap.
