what college major should I finish so I can be a nuclear medicine physician?

Answers:
College major usually is not a deciding factor by med school on admission. You should definitely ace on your MCAT, have a high GPA and do tons of extracurricular activities. As far as nuclear medicine is concern, it's really remotely related to physics. All nuclear medicine physician are basically radiologist that specialize in nuclear medicine (mainly bone scan), most are not experts at physics. So in conclusion, just pick a college major that interest you.

I'd go for physics. You should cover all the math you'll need in the course of completing the physics major. I know someone who is studying nuclear medicine and he doesn't have any background in medicine, but he does have a degree in physics. He seemed to be well prepared.

You can be any major and be accepted into medical school. Anything you take in college that applies to nuclear medicine won't help in medical school since the first four years are the same for all students. By the time you did residency, what you learned you probably would have forgot or is outdated. Just make sure to focus on the four classes needed to be premed and for the MCAT: bio, physics, chem, org chem.
