Lets talk about top pre-med majors you probably haven't heard of before and why traditional pre-med majors, like Biology and Neuroscience ARE NOT the best Pre-Med majors. If you learned something be sure to hit that notification bell!!

Every year students around the world face a dilemma, what should i major in to become a doctor? Most settle for a traditional hard science majors, like Biology or Neuroscience, but according to med school data these majors are the least likely to get you into med school. They are over saturated and don't help you stand out making these the worst majors to be a doctor.
TOP pre-med majors should allow you to get a job EVEN WITHOUT a grad degree, while still keeping the doors open for med school. You need to have a backup, as 50% of pre med majors don't get into med school their first try. The BEST Pre-Med Majors should fulfill all med school pre-reqs, be easy to keep up a high GPA, and be something you enjoy.
So, What Major Is Best For Pre-Med?
The #1 pre med major on my list is Health Information Management. This major teaches you EVERYTHING about how healthcare works in America, plus many pre requisites for med school are required as part of the course work. That's why Health Information Management is one of The BEST Pre-Med Majors.
Another one of the TOP pre-med majors is Healthcare Administration, which will teach you all about the business and operational side of healthcare. You can add med school pre requisites, making Healthcare Administration one of the best majors for med school.
As I mention in the video you can major in anything you want for med school as long as it fulfills the requirements mentioned, it should also have a high ROI. Business majors with med school pre reqs have just as good a shot at acceptance to Med School as traditional med school majors.
I hope this video helped answer the burning question "what should i major in to be a doctor?"

No, he just ruined it. This guy is a known scammer. If you plan on getting into med school than you should throw this trash away. The hard truth is that med schools won't touch you unless you take so many hours of Bio, anatomy and physiology, chemistry, biochemistry, physics, math, and so on... he's extremely irresponsible for not mentioning that. Also, a buisiness degree is useless and the market for them is over saturated. Too many people want to be in buisiness but not many have science knowledge. He lied about that. The health care industry is in crises and needs people with medical knowledge. The really hard truth is buisiness is common sense and being good with money. It's not necessary to being a Dr., and this guy is just evil and wants to gaslight out the competition getting into medical school. If you're smart DON'T LISTEN TO ANY OF THIS and talk to the AMA and your med school you want to get into and What THEY say, not some bum quack on you tube.

Hi! Im a bio major and I’d say the soul reason why most premeds are bio majors is because the major itself has all the prerequisites you need when it comes time when applying for medical or PA schools. Most or all medical and PA schools require a good amount of prerequisite courses in order to apply. The bio majors already covers all if not most of them.

You sound like the millions of pre-meds who will never be admitted to a medical school. They picked a major because it has some courses in it that they need, not because they enjoy that major. You could get the same courses if you pick chemistry, physics, or engineering. If you must major in a science, those majors earn much more than a biology major who couldn't get into medical school.

@@xnng Maybe you should reach out to the scholarships and financial aid office before you make that decision. I think you must be mistaken. There is no way in hell that financial aid or scholarships would tell a pre-med student that their prerequisite courses must be paid out of pocket. No one in the financial aid office is checking each course you enroll in to see if it's on an approved list of major course and denying you funds if it's not. You will only run into financial aid and scholarship problems if you are not making satisfactory academic progress. Two general chemistry, two general physics courses, two general biology, and two organic chemistry courses are not going to cause you to make unsatisfactory academic progress.

@@nostoon4332 I didn’t mean it in a bad way. Not sure why you took it that way. Also the millions of other premed who you say are supposedly not getting into med school probably chose the major because they simply like science not because they are forced to. Not sure why your being so negative about them. No, you don’t need to be a biology major to get into med school or pa school. I simply was just saying it was a cheaper and faster way to go. That way you don’t have to pay extra cash after graduation to take more courses at a CC. I picked biology because 1. I love science 2. It covers almost everything for almost any professional program. But honestly, major in what you love. Don’t be forced to major in biology just cause its cheaper. You’ll just have to take the required pre req courses later after you graduate. 🙌🏼

100% disagree. I’m in my second year of medical school and was a biochemistry major. If I could go back, I would have majored in biology to be exposed to microbiology, virology, cancer biology, etc. If you are serious about medical school, a biology major will be most beneficial to you once you are actually in.

@@lilquinn5479 There really is no "best" major for getting into medical school. MCAT score, GPA, personal statement, interviewing skills, etc. are all more important for an acceptance letter. However, if you major in humanities you will still have to take biology, biochemistry, physics, and other courses required to apply at most med schools. To me, it makes more sense to major in something where those required courses count towards the major. You will be fine with biology or biochemistry, so choose which interests you more. Personally, I just would have liked to trade my upper-level chemistry classes (analytical chemistry, instrumental methods of chemical analysis) for the knowledge I will actually use outside of the classroom. Some other random advice is to take intro level psychology for MCAT prep and take anatomy (not for MCAT but it will help once in medical school). Good luck!

I am a neuroscience major because I love the brain and I want to say, if you are serious about medicine, then this information should not faze you at all. You can major in a hard science and still be successful. This information is best for people who do not really highly enjoy hard sciences to not force yourself into a major you don’t like. But there is no “perfect” pre-med major, it is all subjective, so don’t change a major you like because you are looking for that “perfect” major. Pick a major you like and work hard, no matter if it’s a hard science or an art. Hard sciences will make pre-reqs easier but arts can help with critical thinking and make school more enjoyable if your passion.

I would say it’s a give or take situation. While biology majors cover most (if not all) the recommended prerequisites, they do not stand out and the degree by itself has little to no value. Other practical majors however, such as public health or nursing, do not cover all the recommended prerequisites, but they do offer earlier exposure to the healthcare system and have more value than other STEM majors by themselves.

There is a misconception about what u need to major in. Medical schools want you to do what you want not what you think they want and if u do that they can tell.

I believe Dietetics is a great all round premed for the following reasons: 1. Great science exposure, eg. modules such as physiology, medical bioscience, biochem, chem, pharmacology, nutrition, epidemiology, stats, etc. 2. Clinical experience, dietitians work in almost every single ward, similar to but not as widespread as nurses. So it gives the premed student a great sense of all the different areas in a hospital. 3. If you discover healthcare/medicine/clinical setting is not for you, you can go into sooo many different directions with a dietetics and nutrition degree, from animal nutrition to becoming an author or product developer, private practice, food magazine journalist, product reviewer, and so many different things. 4. A premed in dietetics also prepares you for the health/lifestyle struggles you'll face in med school, knowing what to eat and what nutrients your body needs for intense exams and rotations, what energises your brain to take better care of your patients, how to excel better in med school and all the other benefits of a healthy lifestyle. 5. You will also be one in a very small handful of doctors with great nutrition experience which is a tremendously useful skillset eg. if you're a surgeon for patient healing, general doctor discussing lifestyle changes with patients, etc.

Hi! I am looking to study neuroscience in the future with the intent of going to med school to study the different fields as well as hopefully becoming a psychiatrist. I know there would probably be much easier ways but the brain very much has me passionate to it always has, is it still a bad idea?

My uni requires us to do 150 hours of internship in order to get our BS which will Ofcourse help me right after my undergrad so it’s a win win as a premed.

I am a college student aspiring to be a perfusionist or an anesthesiologist assistant. While these are both masters degrees in the US I have been thinking about two undergraduate majors debating on which one to study. Biology or Respiratory Therapy. I think respiratory therapy is just better because it gives you an actual hospital job right out of undergrad and since I have received permission from teachers to substitute hard sciences within the RT degree then I can have all prerequisites done for graduate health professions if I want to apply and pursue those afterwards. I just feel that biology leads to only science based jobs in labs and high school science teacher careers aside of medical occupations unless you’re like one of the top 5% that gets selected into a super competitive healthcare program and succeeds in rigorous post grad training. What are your thoughts? P.S. I have even come across programs that allow you to study a 4 year biology degree and then get a masters in respiratory therapy from a lab science pre-health background. I thought this was interesting since people can literally get an associates at their local community college or bachelors in respiratory therapy right in undergrad! Isn’t it interesting? Anyways very informative video, and thanks for sharing!

I'm don't really agree with just thinking about a major in terms of ROI. That's a very limiting way of engaging with the world, and also normalizes the contemporary pressure of corporate/finance/capitalistic thinking in society, as opposed to pushing it further to something that is more progressive and equitable. It's thinking within the box, and the box being a world that already normalizes production and capitalistic thinking. It's not to say that thinking in ROI is to be totally avoided. It's to say that is circumstance dependent and to recognize the pitfalls and potential shortsightedness of taking that approach.

Anatomy and physiology and pathology are not pre med majors and sometimes a person's degree path will be so ridged they cannot fit the premed sciences into it. Biology, neurology, chemistry and psychology continue to be the majors where you can efficiently fit in your premedical prerequisites. Also, consider majoring in biology.
