<p>… bad?</p>
<p>I’m not sure if there is going to be an insane amount of work. For one, I have been programming for quite some time and I love programming and messing with computers/linux/anything…</p>
<p>So… being a pre-med comp sci shouldn’t be like being a pre-med electrical engineer or chem major, right?</p>
<p>Please let me know, current students. :)</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>What’s wrong with pre-med chem? I know a few, like myself.</p>
<p>Are you think of being an AB comp sci or a BSE comp sci?</p>
<p>I’m doing BSE comp sci because I don’t want to take a language, but plus, an AB comp sci wouldn’t really be too intensive I think… I’m more math/science</p>
<p>Someone said a pre-med chem major is insane… however, you do have free time right? I want free time to socialize</p>
<p>i am planning to major in Spanish and take the pre-med courses as well. Lots of non-science majors get into medical school. I think that med. schools believe that having other interests besides science makes you a doctor that can relate to different people in different ways. Any major is a lot of work, but I agree that engr. or a pure science major might be intense.</p>
<p>i agree.</p>
<p>after all, you will be learning medicine at med school. 
but, they stress that you need to do all these things anyway</p>
<p>There would be plenty time to socialise. You’d be done the majority of your pre-med classes by the end of sophomore year anyway, so it doesn’t matter that much.</p>
<p>On the other hand, the only time engineers seem to socialise is when they’re doing problem sets … :)</p>
<p>i hope you’re not serious</p>
<p>Not really. It’s probably just because engineers complain a whole lot more than the rest of us.</p>
<p>That’d actually be a pretty cool combination – a lot of mol bio these days is computational and involves information design. Also, a lot of the happier pre-meds I’ve known have been in departments other than mol bio – maybe it gives you options, and a little less direct competition with your classmates.</p>
