Howdie Everyone!

I need some quick advice. I am majoring in mathematics because I love math. Should I stick with my major or change into a science major like biology or chemistry? I love math! I love science too, but more on math.

Help!

Thanks a bunch!

Stick with you Mathematics degree and maybe minor in Biology or Biochemistry if you can. That would be your best bet. Or jsut get your degree then ake your pre-reqs after, but do something you love and if that's mathematics, wonderful, go for it!

Stick with the major you love. You're more likely to end up with a high GPA that way. Adcomms don't care what your major is, as long as you get the prerequisites in.

Stay with math cause if you don't get into med school chances are you're more desirable in all the "mathy" fields of accounting etc in the business world.

Math FTW! Quite a few of my interviewers were really impressed with my math major. Keep at it. It's awesome! 😍 math!

yeah but you bombed the MCAT, so...

I'll second that and add physics. Everyone goes Keanu Reeves on you when you tell them you did something that involves numbers. Doctors and math don't get along too well, it seems.

Speaking of that, math majors have the highest MCAT scores of all majors. Another reason math is superior. 🙂

Stay with what you love and have a GPA to show for it. Take the pre-med requirements not covered by your major on the side.

I'm glad to see someone loves it. I know I don't. yuck

This, as much because you love it as because of what Catalystik just said. You'll be happier, and so will your transcript.

I'm an anthropology major and I spend a lot of time explaining to others how I can possibly be a pre-med without a major in chemistry or biology lol
