Hi, Rachel! Please, could you tell me if his degree was Computer Science BS or BA? To double major such different requirements, I am wondering if he chose the BA route instead of BS? I know both are great paths and a great number of industries couldn’t care less for which one a candidate has if they are well versed with full-ended knowledge, but I’ve seen a lot of posts about STEM industries prefering a BS for their positions. My son was accepted in direct admit Engineering CS BS programs, but as he is in the pre-med track also (including BSMD offers), those programs are encouraging him to change his degree to CS BA because “it would be nearly impossible to finish all requirements in 4 years”. This thinking was not his plan and I was wondering if Kevin could share his path here. Thanks in advance!

Congrats to your son on his acceptances! Kevin says he got a BS, but only because Duke only rewards a BS or BA. So he had a BS in Bio and it carried over to CS. Hope that helps, if you have more questions, let me know and I can ask!

@@rachel_lin thank you! Sorry if I am still confused. Computer Science requirements have almost no intersection with the Pre-Med track and leave little flexibility to honor those in a BS route. Would Kevin be able to share with us his undergrad plan? My son was accepted into a BSMD program, and his mentors are trying to dissuade him from the Engineering College, what we are extremely uncomfortable with. Despite understanding where they come from, his statements were based on both CS and Medicine since they one of application. They offered him a place clearly knowing this upfront. Any experience on how to make this work will be truly appreciated. Thank you again!

Is it hard to do research with only a phd without the md?

Hey, I am currently pursuing computer science engineering. I really want to do something in the medical field once I finish my bachelors . I had physics, chemistry and mathematics in my grade 11 and 12 . I would like to give MCAT and apply for the MD/PhD program. I would like to know if I am eligible to apply.

Hi Naksha! You would be able to take the MCAT with your computer science engineering background. However, certain sections of the MCAT may be more difficult if you haven't taken courses in that field, like Biology for example. It is do-able, but you would have to spend a lot of time self studying those areas you are not familiar with! Some advice from Navya, a Consultant with Study Hall College Consulting (shcollegeconsulting.com), who has taken the MCAT and is currently applying to med school: she says "would 100000% be harder if you haven't taken those science classes yet but definitely doable." If you're looking for more MCAT-related advice, check Navya out on our website!
