I was planning on majoring in Molecular biology and Spanish. Is a double major a risk even though I feel confident about these two majors. I really do like Molecular biology and Spanish. But for pre-med I think it looks good to double major in something you like right?

Yes it looks good. Yes it's a risk. Doesn't mean you can't try it out.
It's not too big a deal for you right now. Just try it. Drop a major if it looks like it's going to affect your GPA. One quarter or semester is all it will take to give you an idea of whether it's doable (along with the extra currics you should be doing). It's all a balancing act. Just make sure you're not too proud to give up one of them if necessary and there's no reason why you shouldn't try for it.

It depends on your schedule and how much you're willing to put into it. If you really have the time to commit to doing both of these, then yes, it would look good. But you have be sure before you sign up. You also have to make sure you would be willing to work hard enough to keep up with two majors. It would be almost double the work some other people in college are doing. If you wanted to look at an easier alternative, you could try majoring in one and minoring in another. You could even possibly change your mind later, if you think you're up to it. Good luck!

To be honest, I would rather a doctor with higher grades in things medical than lower grades in science so you could take spainish. If you are trying to impress Pre med people by double majoring, spanish will not impress them. IF you want to double to impress medical field, then you need to double major in medical fields.
I think you should minor in spanish.

major in molecular biology and minor in spanish....spanish is important too....bilingual doctors are always good! but just focus on pre-med....pre-med is already hard enough...don't take on too much....enjoy college!

you will possibly desire to choose for it. Even after the biology coursework, you will nonetheless choose electives, which you will possibly desire to to boot turn the electives right into a double significant. Plus, the spanish provides some thing to fallback on in case biology or medicine does not artwork out.

If you know you can handle it, go for it. Bilingual doctors are a plus.
