SUMMARY

Obtaining a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) followed by a Bachelor of Science (BSc) can provide a unique combination of skills, but it is not essential for pursuing a medical career. The discussion emphasizes the importance of a strong foundation in Biology and Biochemistry for medical school applications. A double major in these fields is recommended for those aiming for medical school, as the focus should be on patient care rather than business management. Ultimately, the necessity of a business degree in the medical field is questioned, suggesting that clinical skills should take precedence.

Are there any benefits to getting a BBA (4-yr program), and then getting a BSc (hopefully followed by med-schoo). So basically, would one accomplish anything by getting business and medical degrees? Just curious

I suggest you take more Biology and Biochemistry in undergraduate school (double major?), and then apply to med school if that is your final desire. I don't see a need for a business degree - you should not be holding the staff of caduceus, but rather the staff of asclepius and care for your patients and not the money
