WOW.... i just wanna say there's a LOT of material thats already been posted, but im really too lazy to read it all cuz this really doesnt concern me, as im just offering my opinion, which is really just turning into a run on sentence... sorta

going into life sci will let you further choose your major, as its more general in the first year, and then you can choose a major, or stay in honours life sci
while to transfer from kin into something else is a little harder (not impossible)
as for med school, choose a major that you enjoy, not just cuz its easy
it'll make getting into med school easier. if we all choose majors based on what was easiest, we'd all be in health sci :p

I'm not sure about the last clause but what you said is something I completely agree with.

hey i had this same problem this year, only i ended up having to switch from life sci to kin because i didn't enjoy what i was taking. so my advice to you for med school is take whatever will give you the best marks, and kin allows to take electives in upper years so you can use those to take the required courses for med school.
