Hello! I'm not sure if this is the right sub for this, but I am a high schooler applying to college right now and am looking to submit my application to UT Austin (my preferred school) soon. I want to go to medical school and become a doctor in the future, but am not sure whether to major in public health or neuroscience. Both interest me (neuroscience slightly more so), and I realize that the undergrad major ultimately doesn't matter much when applying to med school, so I was debating which one would position me for my backup plan if med school doesn't pan out (healthcare administration/business).
Here's my dilemma:
I am more likely to get into public health at UT Austin than neuroscience (biggest plus of public health).
Now either way, I know I would have to get an MBA or an MHA for my backup plan, and although public health aligns more with it, I wanted to know if majoring in public health would be a significant advantage to me in applying to MBA/MHA compared to majoring in neuroscience (in which case I would minor in business). Would it even matter as long as I have sufficient experience/creds?
Also, would it make it easier to get research opportunities and such as an undergrad if I'm a neuroscience major as opposed to public health (as my main goal is still med school)?
And in your opinion, which one do you think outweighs?
Thank you so much.
TLDR:
High schooler wanting to become a doctor but has healthcare administration/business as backup plan. Would majoring in public health as an undergrad position me better to get an MBA or MHA compared to majoring in neuroscience + minoring in business? And would getting research be easier if I'm a neuroscience major compared to public health major?
