Do certain majors have a better chance of getting into medical school than others?
No. It is the individual record of the student that determines their success. What you need to get into medical school are good grades, especially in science courses, good scores on the standardized tests (MCATs, etc.) and some type of experience in a clinical setting (i.e. volunteer work). Medical schools do not show any “favoritism” to specific majors. We have had successful medical school applicants with majors in Biology, Exercise Science, Chemistry, Psychology, English, Music, etc.
