Medical schools are looking for students who have completed specific course work and who have performed at a high academic level.
Some schools recommend a second English course.
All schools value strong communication skills. Biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, developmental biology and other specific courses may also be recommended. We recommend that students' interests dictate their choice of major as long as the prerequisites for medical school admission are met. Most PC applicants to medical school have completed the BS degree in Biology. Medical school admissions personnel unequivocally state that the undergraduate major is not a consideration in the admissions process.
