I was a music major at UCLA for a while before I changed. I did get pretty good grades in music while I was there, but it’s not easy! The theory classes can be v. difficult. The performance groups are good and a lot of fun. My main reason for quitting the major was that I did not particularly like the head flute coach, and as I lived in the dorms, it was difficult to find somewhere to practice.

I hear that music majors have a good chance of getting into med school, but I don’t know first-hand how true that is. If you minored in bio, you could cover that base as well. Good luck.
