Unsure of Major

Some colleges offer a pre-med major, but it’s not often recommended. I think it’s partly because what happens if you don’t wind up going to medical school in the end? What will you do with a pre-med degree? And for the rest of your life, you’ll have that “not quite finished” look to your academics, as it’ll be clear to anyone that you intended to go into medicine and didn’t make it.

I’ve been lurking on Student Doctor Network a lot lately and highly recommend it to anyone considered medicine, pharmacy, or any advanced-degree medical field. I’m not in those programs myself; I’m just lurking for no decent reason. :)
