<p>I want to switch from being a bio major to a humanities major. The only worry I have is if I want to take a year off after graduation and do stuff like extra research for a year to strengthen my application–do you have to be a bio major to be able to do research after graduation?</p>
<p>No, you don’t have to be a bio major to do research.</p>
<p>One of the MD/PhD students who matriculated with my MD class studied English at Brown and then took two years off to do science research.</p>
