To premedical students—try to take as many non-science courses as you can. Medical school will teach you all you need to know to become a competent doctor. Use your undergraduate education as an opportunity to broaden your mind. There is so much more to 'education' than science courses. You will be a more well-rounded individual as well as a better physician.
