CVJN: I think you are at a real crossroads in your life. I think you have to choose one path here. It would be impossible to do both business and premed requirements at UM in two years. You need to do some serious thinking.

Both of these paths are going to be quite hard at UM and your classes will be full of other kids who want to keep their GPAs up. The business school at UM is well respected. Why not get your degree in business, get a job you can travel in, and then later, if you still want to go into medicine, you could pursue it then.

I think sticking with your business-travel plan might be your best bet. You will be able to find a job and keep up your ethical standards. I’ve heard that business ethics is a big deal in MBA programs now.

And by the way, I went to grad school at UM and loved it. It’s a great school and campus. GO BLUE!!!
