thanks to everyone so far for your great advice!
my only concern is if I have to take pre-med courses AS WELL as engineering courses might it take me 5 years to graduate rather than 4?
and also, i know that med school is tired of boring biology majors and the common sciences, so would this be a GOOD way to stand out? or would making the minumun 3.7 GPA be harder in engineering than any other major?
