Do you think that adcoms at med-school will consider it kind of a joke that I majored in Japanese?



No, I have known 4 language majors that go into medical school. Once you complete the prereqs then the medical school is happy. (3 spanish, 1 italian)



Some people are also worried about what my exit opportunities will be if I don’t get into med-school.



If you are really set on medical school, then you can apply to post bac program (the med school track ones) and improve your resume before applying again.
