Hi, I am currently a junior at a non-target. I was a pre-health chemistry major till this year until I finally switched my major to economics after I realized my interests were not in the health field and I couldn't stand another chemistry class. I had around a 2.0 gpa in the major but after the switch I got a 4.0 last semester in 16 credit hours of econ coursework. Should I include my science gpa even though chem is not my major anymore applying for internships?

You can also try and just put
You can also try and just put your current major's GPA, and then do the overall GPA and not put the Pre-Med GPA by itself. You obviously can supplement this with the classes as mentioned above.
