Do average hs students become doctors and vets?

[Data10]

<p>

There is no premed at Stanford. So many claim to be one of the majors. Those who claim to be premed are not sure of their major. My kid would have said engineering if asked. A lot would have done natural sciences.

According to the link above, freshman questionnaire used to be phrased as follows:</p>

<p>“At this point in your life, if you are thinking of pursuing a graduate degree, in which area(s) would you do so?” </p>

<p>This question structure doesn’t limit students to choosing undergrad majors. ~21.5% of students answered that they were thinking about a degree in medicine during the study years of 2002-04 . I don’t thinking declining by 4% from 21.5 to 17.5 over a decade is unreasonable since a larger number of students choose tech fields than a decade ago.</p>
