I would like to ultimately become a doctor that's why I would get a B.Sc, but I also love business and would like a BBA. But I was thinking I might want to be a lawyer later on. But anyway...can I get a degree in both at the same time at the same university? I'm only in high school, but am planning ahead. Would I still be in school for 4 years? Or am I crazy in this (I think I have heard of people doing this before). What would the course load be like, etc.? Or the university offers a BBA with a joint major in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, but how would I get the other science requirements for medical school?

Getting two bachelor's degrees is different than getting a double major. It can be done and people do it all the time. I have a BA and a B.Sc.

The courseload is the same - max load is going to be 18 hours or so whether you're doing one bachelor's or two. It will not be 4 years - more like 5-6 years.

The only requirements will be that you complete all of the requirements of both degrees and that your second degree have 30-40 hours not used in the first.

There is no reason you couldn't do a BBA and still meet all of the science requirements for med school admission. It just might take a touch longer than doing just the BBA.

You can double major anywhere, but whether you can get two different degrees depends upon the school. Some allow it, and some do not (we did a study of this last year because there were an increasing number of students wanting two degrees, and we found that schools are all over the place on this). Whether you can do it in four years or not depends upon how you enter. If you come into college with a lot of AP credits and college classes, you can do it rather easily. If not, you will probably at the very least need to go to summer school several times if you want to finish within four years.

You can double major. I'm not sure, but this may be different than your idea of joint major. A joint major sounds like a specific program used for specific jobs. A double major is simply getting 2 degrees as you go along. All of the requirements of each major will be taken, which will obviously take longer than just one degree. It won't take twice as long, because most universities have a general ed program that everyone has to take, so it will be just additional major classes.

there is making plans forward, then there is paranoia. Be a new child and stay interior the 2nd. in case you plan precisely the form you decide on issues to finally end up in college, once you're in center college, this is going to likely be a chilly slap whilst they do no longer. undertaking approximately those products a million/2 way by using intense college like all people else.
