<p>I think majority of stuents major in Biology but that seems to be changing.
Once you get into med school, a science major would help you in the first 2 years when it’s all basic core sciences. The exam taken at the end of 2nd year is the most crucial as it determines your residency so some strong science knowledge can make a difference.</p>
<p>I read somewhere that physics majors do very well on MCATs and LSATs because of the logical thinking skills they develop throughout their major.</p>

<p>You may also be aware that reoprted %'age of premed successes from one school is obtained differently than from another. Some schools take ALL of their premeds and base %'age on how many got into med school. Some schools do not provide needed documentation to those who they feel do not qualify for med school and therefore their reported numbers are after pre-selection. Just something to consider.</p>
