I got in UWMadison Biochem major and Loyola/UIUC Biology major. Which one is better for pre-med track? Please Advise.
 
Biology or Biochemistry would satisfy all the general science course requirements for medical school, so it will come down to what you will find the most interesting, and also consider which one you would be more successful in as a student. Biochemistry is the best of both worlds (Chemistry + Biology), but if you're not a huge fan of chemistry, I wouldn't add more of it into your life.
