Prospective Student medical anthropology (premed) @ cwru
hi! i'm a high school senior applying EA to cwru this fall. it;s one of my top schools and i'm planning to apply as a medical anthropology major. the trends from what i've noticed is that most premeds are public health, bio, biochem, or bme majors. I'm wondering if medical anthropology puts me at a disadvantage in the premed grind (since it doesn't cover most premed reqs).
questions
1. is being a humanities major a disadvanatge in the med school cycle?
2. how easy is it to change majors at cwru? (i want to stay anthro but my parents, if i get in, would rather i be a bio/chem major)
3. how is medical anthro at cwru overall?
thanks!
