I'm trying to figure out my schedule for next year and I can't decide if I want to finish the spanish minor or the chemistry minor. I did volunteer work in Chile for 2 years where I was able to learn Spanish. When I got back to school, I took an exam that allowed me to pass out of 16 credits worth of spanish courses. If I decide to finish the minor, I will still need to take 5 more spanish courses along with finishing my Microbiology major which will require a very demanding senior year. If I minor in chemistry, I'll have time to take anatomy, and just a couple spanish classes, but not enough to finish the spanish minor. I heard that anatomy is somewhat helpful for preparing for med school and I have always been interested in learning it more in depth.
Is my minor even that important to med schools? If I'm already fluent in spanish, do I really need to get the minor? I'm leaning more towards the chem minor option that will allow me time to take anatomy and a couple spanish courses that interest me.
