English/Pre-Med

I loved being an English major because English encompasses so many other disciplines, and helps you become a well-rounded individual; History, psychology, sociology, and art are intertwined with literature, and by the time you graduate you are famililar with all those areas of study. Also, as an English major, you are taught to develop analysis skills that can be used in a myriad of ways throughout life. Enevitable cons: English professors have the tendency to be the most anal-rentetive human beings on the face of the planet, you often have the urge to correct people when they're talking and edit random emails, you have to read hundreds of pages of literature per week, and by the time you graduate you won't want to write another paper for as long as you live.

I loved being Pre-Med because the rigorous courseload prepares you for the challenging and exciting world of medical school. Enevitable cons: You will have dreams in which you are forced to balance chemical equations (or maybe that was just me), you have to study for class AND the daunting MCAT, and throughout all your studying and late nights you are faced with the disheartening reality that only 44% of medical school applicants are accepted into medical school .
