Im saying majoring in Biology could be bad due to the number of applicants with a major in Biology applying to med school. But I love biology and I am really good at it. So should I stick with it? Med schools wont frowned on me and say"another biology major..." would they?

It really doesn't matter what you major in as long as you fill the premed requirements. Some med schools actually prefer it if you major in something totally different because it makes you seem more well rounded. My best friend just began her residency and she did her undergrad/premed at Columbia and was a history major.
As long as you do well in your courses and do well on the MCATs you should be fine. If you love Biology, than stick with it.

Doesn't matter if you major in Arts long as you take all required sciences up to biochem and got super academic achievements. Obviously it is easier to do bio major than other unrelated ones because of work load. There are ton of things they look for so long as you get around 3.2~3.5gpa and do ok on MCAT you'll find some school that'll take you with enough search. Feel like bio won't make you stand out? then try to find some undergraduate research and see if you can get your name included in published studies.
