Neuroscience is a sub field of biology and includes ~90% of the same classes as a plain vanilla bio major. You will be taking exactly the same “weed out” classes along side all the bio majors.
A neuroscience degree is even less employable post graduation than a plain bio degree.
Do you guys know if any of these weed-out students?
All pre med programs weed out students. Some weed more harshly than others.
In general, you want to be in the top 25% of accepted students because it’s those other top students (who tend to cluster in engineering and science majors) who you will be competing against to earn those A grades you need to build a strong med school application.
As mentioned above, you also need to consider cost, fit as well what types of opportunities each school will offer you.
By opportunity I mean-- the opportunity to explore other majors and other career pathways (because 60-75% of freshmen pre-meds never even apply to med school), to develop mentoring relationships with your professors (because you’ll need letters of recommendation for med school), to get involved in campus activities (because med schools are looking for well rounded individuals), and to grow and develop as person and as an individual.
