Students interested in allopathic or osteopathic medical school can major in just about anything, although the majority of students choose either biology or chemistry.
As a person interested in health care you must consider these points:
| You must also be well-rounded in your liberal arts education. | |
| You must also demonstrate a desire to help people, either through paid or volunteer work. | |
| Finally, you should seriously consider "job shadowing" to see just what a physician does in the course of the day. Talk to your advisor about arranging this during your junior or senior year. | |
| You must maintain a GPA of at least 3.5 on a 4.0 scale. |
