Is pre-med useless if you don't get into medical school?

I don’t see how a science related major would be useless, especially if it’s a subject that the student is passionate about and enjoys very much.

<p>In terms of job and career prospects at the bachelor’s level, chemistry and biology do poorly (note: chemical engineering does much better than chemistry). Physics, math, statistics, and computer science do pretty well. You can take a look at career surveys of graduates from schools like UC Berkeley, Cal Poly, CMU, MIT, Georgia Tech, and Purdue to see this.</p>
