It doesn't really matter what you minor in, as long as you fill out the med school requirements. If you have a certain passion, even if it's not medically related, take advantage of being in school and take some classes in it. Do history. Do music. Do French. It doesn't really matter. In fact, it may make your med school application standout more. Just don't jeopardise your med school requirements.

I strongly recommend speaking with your school counselor, just like I did when I was studying economics and pre-med, and preparing for the MCAT. It's crucial to carefully map out your journey into the field of medicine. I didn't do this, and it had an impact on my GPA. So, let's learn from my experience and ensure you're on a path to success!
Thank you, Vilash!
