Thanks for the info and advice! UT Austin is a great school, hope you like it there.
I want to major in Econ because of the great job prospects and I find it interesting. I'm not going to pay all that money to major solely in biology and have no contingency plan if I don't go to med/dental school. With Econ I could go get an MBA and become a financial advisor or something if it doesn't work out.
I could look into something like a major in Econ and a double major or minor in biochem/bio. I would agree that only the basic prerequisites probably don't prepare you as well as they should. Gotta ace those USMLEs! I'll definitely be sure to take upper level science classes with my Econ major, I'll take some summer classes if I have to in order to graduate on time.
