Why We Switched Majors | Brown & USC

[@DrAdnan]

I think public health is a great undergrad major, especially in the next few decades of medicine as we focus more on tailoring medicine to different populations with their own socioeconomic and cultural considerations 👏👏

[@ezeanii10]

Thank you so much for this post! I’ve been feeling lost as a biology major but I think I’ve found my calling. I specially want to focus on the maltreatment of Black American women in the health care system.

[@KatieTracy]

YOU HAVE BEEN LEVELING UP YOUR FILMING + EDITING and it SHOWS😍🙌🏼

[@MayGao]

aww thanks katie!!

[@kookies2436]

Oml your editing keeps getting better in every video. Thanks for sharing these infos

[@MayGao]

of course :-) was super fun to film

[@k.a.obrennan8364]

Loving this! I studied my MSc in public health, and am a first year PhD student in public health, social determinants of health and health inequalities. It's nice to see this positive chat about public health. I dont think it gets enough publicity!

[@cindyhernandez4663]

yay i was planning on putting down public health as my major when i (hopefully) transfer in next yr at usc! rly great to hear more insight, and totally motivated to actually go with it now

[@MayGao]

super happy to hear you found clarity!

[@ilsasajid6615]

i really appreciate this video because i'm graduating this year and will go to uni next year, but i'm so conflicted between so many different fields & it comforts me to know that its ok to switch and my first year doesn't necessarily define my whole future💜

[@taylormarshall936]

I loved this video! I am going to be on the premed track, and for a while i considered majoring in biology. However, I think that majoring in something like public health, or psychology will be more beneficial to me because I am more interested in these aspects of medicine. I also want to minor in a foreign language. Thank you for representing a different "pre-med" major!

[@brittney-ange9904]

Thank you so much for this video. I am currently a undeclared health and human service major and I am currently working into switching into the Nursing program but then I've heard about Public Health and was considering it as a back up plan if nursing doesn't work out. Because of this video I really might consider it more and more again thank you so much!! ❤️

[@justinc1482]

Stay on the nursing track. There are more opportunities in that field. This major is useless after graduation, whereas a nursing degree is not!

[@OneDirectioning]

i love this! i’m a bio major, but am planning to minor in public health. it is definitely an underrated field of study and took a paradigm shift to view the healthcare field less from a scientific and medical standpoint to a public health pov!!

[@a576823]

im going into college with the public health major next year!

[@meganchen8422]

i love! im planning to major in public health, so it's really nice to hear your perspectives!

[@MayGao]

glad you took something away from this!

[@AddittiAgrawal]

[@davistong]

[@ellie2666]

Anuva needs a channel!!

[@manwella882]

I am a CRNA newly graduate and i think its not the right major for me so i start googling graduate programs that may offer what i am interested in and i found mph which is a flexible program that opens many doors in the health field i am interested in mental health

[@julissanicolas3294]

Yayyyy a new video!

[@tejirilearn6405]

OMG SO HELPFUL

[@tracy_cakkes]

I will be studying nutritional science this fall so excited 😆

[@africanlily6107]

Tracy Ragland will you go on to be an Registered Dietician?

[@emilyball1609]

This was so SO helpful! Thank you :)

[@Changzy]

I’m a Communication major. I’m thinking about going for a Public Health minor now. What do you think?

[@thefuturedoctor4365]

Really illuminating video! Any thoughts on studying social work as premed?

[@kiefeha6293]

High quality content!

[@christyzheng6255]

I’m visting USC rn!

[@pendaba3746]

this was INSANELY helpful and validating, especially as a future global health major at usc! This really made me feel better about my choice.

[@cookiesarelikecream]

May I love the grey shirt

[@cookiesarelikecream]

And the hair! Slay

[@jessicasamudio1756]

where did you get it?!?

[@Shakesphere-x6d]

The Way You Say Your Things And Put across The Platform Is simply Awesome.The Filming has got much better May Gao Has improved A Lot. Idk But your videos Are becoming drug of inspiration for me. I have sets Of question If You Could Answer It would be great. 1. What Shall I do to apply For Usa University (currently Studying in India) 2. what universities Are good for Major In Business Administration . 3. How could you be so cute? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂(Ps : A joke)

[@justinabenson7229]

Where can you work with a public health. I've been on the nursing track ever since and now I'm close to applying but it seems impossible I will apply but if I don't get in I will switch my major to public health. My end goal is physician assistant school but I need a good degree also that pays atleast above average as I have families looking up to me

[@jessicap736]

wow, I'm doing the same thing!

[@leospicegirl]

same

[@gwenrey4950]

So if I take public health as a major can I still apply to med school?

[@fatimasheriff3780]

Yes!!

[@pielle]

omg yes same...sorta...i plan on transferring uni but to a similar course but not rly

[@TechVHD]

USC doesn't have undergrad public health

[@MayGao]

I believe it's technically Health Promotion, hpdp.usc.edu/education.php?sub=HPDP

[@orangefanta6567]

Thank you so much for this video! Ive been trying to figure out what school to go to for public health, how would you say Brown is in terms of its public health program? Like how developed is it in terms of class number and quality of education? Are there many internship and research opportunities made available by Brown? Whats the job outlook post-Brown?

[@PunkMaster]

Hey I am majoring in public health planning on becoming a Physicians Assistant

[@justinabenson7229]

My end goal is physician assistant too. And I have always being on the nursing route but it seems quite impossible cos it's too competitive like damn

[@joshuachen618]

I found out that you chose health and human biology. I've also learned the 4 blood types in biology when I was a freshman, and I'm just curious do you know what's your blood type? Which one out of the 4 blood types is you?

[@Queenamizzo]

Do you guys know anything about health informatics?

[@MayGao]

I'm taking a biomedical informatics class this semester! It's an intersection between public health, computer science, and biology. If you're interested in AI/ML, electronic health records, and digitization in health generally you'd probably enjoy it. www.brown.edu/academics/medical/about-us/research/centers-institutes-and-programs/biomedical-informatics/courses-0

[@shahi1364]

What is the song in the intro?plz tell me

[@PrescillaKgade]

It's in the description box

[@mihirrao616]

Does your undergraduate college really matter for premed? Is it better to go to a cheaper state school than a more selective private school that is more expensive, especially if you have intentions of going to medical school?

[@MayGao]

Hi Mihir, feel free to dm me on instagram or email me for my thoughts!

[@Crunchyapples1]

while it technically doesnt matter, i think the opportunities at elite colleges are helpful for premeds
