You'll probably do a little better on your MCAT if you
are a science major. However, being a non-science
major sometimes makes your application more
interesting and makes for a good interview.
As long as you have the prereqs for the MCAT, your
major shouldn't make much difference.
I was a biology major, but sometimes wish I weren't
just so I could have a more diverse background.

Do what feels right for you.

Best wishes!
