The reactions of medical school admissions committees would depend a lot on your college. If the business major is considered academically rigorous on a par with more common premed majors, like say chemistry, then it would be fine. I doubt Wharton students find they are disadvantaged when applying to medical school.

If it is a less rigorous program, then you could run into problems.

Certainly useful to have a business background if you go into medicine. Most doctors have no clue.
