I'm not sure if this thread is in the right place so...
Anyways, as an student interested in entering med school, I've been wondering which of the following majors would allow me: a better chance of a higher GPA, time for EC's, time to cover all of pre-reqs, time for MCAT, oh and did I mention higher GPA?
BME, Biochem, Neuroscience, Psychology, etc..feel free to name any other majors.
Having noticed that adcoms won't take increased rigor of a major as an excuse for a low GPA, I've decided that this (high GPA) is one of the most important, if not the most important factor to be a competitive applicant. Another bonus is that I would have extra time to focus on my EC's, application etc. (basically everything to make me a competitive applicant) which would be a direct result of having a *not as intense* major.
Any other tips of advice or "true stories" would be greatly appreciated!
