You have 4 electives per year, that means 16 elective courses in your entire undergrad. 24 units of music is 8 courses so you'll still have 8 courses left if you do your minor. Most medical schools in Ontario don't even have need pre-requisite courses, it's just University of Ottawa and University of Toronto that has requirements. I'm sure 8 courses is enough to complete your pre-requisites and still have a few courses left to take anything you want. One thing I want to add though, and I'm not trying to be negative, but I agree with Silver on the minoring aspect. Most first year go into Kin or other programs wanting to minor in something but most end up dropping that idea. And I can say that because I'm one of those people that dropped their idea in minoring in something. It's just too much of a hassle to take 8 whole courses, even if you enjoy it. However, if you are set on the idea and do plan on minoring in music, that's also great.
For some Med Schools, they accept anatomy and physiology courses as life sciences credits, in that case you'll have a ton of those.
Kin 3Y03 is a third year Nutrition/Metabolism course that can be count towards a Biochemistry credit. Someone last year used it as one and UofT accepted it.
