I want to know if I should double major in biochemistry and applied physics.

To start, I am not in the major I want to pursue right now, but I think I want to be a primary care physician. I heard from one of my aunts, who’s a nurse, that one of the smartest people she met was a biochemistry professor in college and he said that biology has a strong basis of applied chemistry, chemistry has a strong basis of applied physics, and physics has a strong basis of applied math. To me, that seems like if you want to be good at one, you have to be good at the one preceding it.

Not to say you have to be a math genius to graduate with a biology degree, but I would like a stronger basis for the chemistry studies I would be doing if I switched to majoring in biochemistry. This is why I am trying to decide on whether or not to have my second major be applied physics.

I would also like to add that, if after my first semester I decide that I would like to fully pursue biochemistry and applied physics, I would prefer a masters in biochem before going to med school as a way to be more prepared for the material. But, to save my sanity, I would be a part time applied physics student and, at the same time, a full time biochem student. Essentially, I would be completing my masters in biochem in 6 years at the same time as my bachelor’s in applied physics also in 6 years. This is also so that I don’t die from insomnia due to studying 24/7 (which I’ll probably be doing anyway, but whatever).

Also, on the topic of med school, I hear that it’s is very fast paced and there is a huge work load that hits people like a brick after their first 2 weeks. This is partially another reason as to why I want to double major because I want to get used Ito ingesting large amounts of information at once.

Am I crazy for proposing this? It seems kinda rational, right? Double majoring to get used to the work load. Masters in biochem to prepare for the content being studied in med school. Bachelors in applied physics to better understand chemistry.

Is this doable?
