I am a biology major, which is under the school of natural sciences here at my university. There are other majors that are considered natural sciences. for example, chemistry, zoology, marine biology, geology, ecology, astronomy etc. However, not many schools offer all of these. The most popular are biology, chemistry, and marine biology. Those who major in bio and chem look foward to med schools, dental schools, pharmacy schools etc. If you're interested in these subjects, then go for it. But majoring in a science field takes a lot of dedication, time, studying, hw, and a sudden decrease of a social life. but good luck deciding!

In one of my kid's schools they had that major. It was strictly for premed and predental students. They didnt major in a single science, but took two or three courses in each of several different sciences. That gave them a good preparation and met all the requirements for the medical schools apps. but they didnt have to do a lot of stuff that was very advanced and not related to the med school classes.
So, it wasnt an easy major because all the kids in there were hot shot students. You need to talk to the advisor for that program before you commit to it.
