    I'm studying Biomedical Engineering as a pre-med and I absolutely love it! I think having a little bit of diversity in your courses and the people you are surrounded with is great to give yourself a break from the college world of pre-med.

    Sometimes picking a major can feel like being put in a box or being exactly like everyone else. I think you should pick your major based on an area of study that you actually like because it makes getting the degree a lot easier than just doing it for medical school. I am studying Public health and I love it. I think the study of disease is really interesting and complements my affinity for medicine perfectly. #SBAGiveaway

    I think it is easy to follow the trend that you have to major in some types of biology or chemistry in order to be pre-med, but I have friends who are business major or media major, doing pre-med, and they say it is manageable. You can have majors that are not science-based and still be a good application for medical school.
