Since Columbia doesn’t have a Pre-Med major (which is what I’ve checked off for most of my other applications) does anyone have a recommendation as to what major I should choose if I’m looking towards medical school?

I’m thinking Biology or Biochemistry.

And in my essay and everything else, should I avoid talking about my aspirations to medical school? Will mentioning that my preferred major doesn’t exist at Columbia hurt my chances?
