[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know women’s studies, studio art, and political science majors from my LAC, who went to medical school. [/quote] 3% of med school students were/are humanities majors It’s safe to say nobody knows many English majors who became doctors because it’s statistically impossible. But you may know some.[/quote] Statistically if you know 33 doctors one of them majored in humanities. To know two you need to know 67 doctors. To know “a few” or you need to know hundreds of doctors.[/quote] Or you went to a top SLAC?[/quote] +1 Top SLAC students who go on to med school are impressive. They’ve self-selected into an environment that values a full liberal arts education. Of the 9 pre-med students I knew in college, one was an art history major. She studied art in Florence during junior summer while the rest of us had internships. Then went directly from college to a top med school. [/quote]
