Absolutely. Biology, Chemistry, and Biochemistry are definitely the most common undergraduate degrees of those who start medical school, though you are by no means restricted to any of these provided you've got all the prerequisites. There is a great deal of information on medical school applicants, requirements, and demographics on the link below.

Oh heavens yes... I know and work with doctors that had degrees in Biochemistry, then went and became Medical Technologists. After those folks got Registered as a MT, they applied to and went to Med School. These folks did the Med school thing during the week, worked as MT"s on weekends/ PRN for the extra money. A good share of that coursework is Pre-med.

I've seen that before as a pre-med major, so I see no problem with that. I've seen a wide variety of pre-med majors actually - biochemistry, biology, biomechanical engineering, zoology, psychology, etc.

Of course. And if I am an admissions counselor, you're a shoo-in. However, you do not have to have a science degree in order to go to med school. I have a classmate who is a FINE ARTS major. Boy, was he a good musician as well!

Sure, I did. I think you're better prepared than bio majors anyway.
