Medical schools get applications from students all over the country. If they’re going to give preference to anything, it’s going to be a state school giving preference to a state resident. Grades and MCAT scores are what does the talking. That being the case, you’re a lot wiser than most premeds. It’s hard to get into medical school, and you can’t to much with a biology degree.

As long as you meet the medical school’s prerequisites, you can major in anything you want. That’s the tricky part, though. Schools vary on what the prerequisites actually are. Biology degrees usually cover the prerequisites for any school. For a degree in engineering, it just means you have to be selective about what medical schools you apply to. There are plenty, you just have to look around. Medical schools get bored of looking at biology majors. When they see someone with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, you immediately stand out, because you’re versatile.
