The second in my series of looking-forward-to-graduate-school-even-though-I-haven't-started-college-yet topics.

 

I believe that there has already been a thread that addressed this issue, but I can't find it for one and I don't think there was ever a direct, general answer there in any event. Does having a double major mean anything to a graduate schools in, roughly speaking, the biological or social sciences?

 

I'm looking to go into a program in biological anthropology (they have some of those) or anthropology failing that, and I'm beginning down the path of a double major in anthropology and biology with a concentration and ecology and evolutionary biology (the degree actually says that). Mean anything? I'd still like to take the extra classes for the sake of building my base of knowledge in dealing with primate evolution, which I want to study, but knowing that I would also be helping my grad school chances might motivate me a bit more to get through calculus or organic chemistry.

 

Wisdom appreciated.

I am, unfortunately, not able to proffer wisdom of my own, but here is one of those threads for which you searched:

Good luck, regardless the path you folllow.

Aha. Well I feel foolish, I actually posted there. It had functionally the same title too. Thank you.

If I really could help you I would point you towards cellular and molecular biology really.
