Two Majors?

Hello,

I am a sophomore Econ/Bio double major (I got to a UC so no Finance). I have a 2022 internship lined up (AA ik ik). 
My problem with my Bio major is that it is significantly lowering my gpa both directly and indirectly. Indirectly, because I spend 99% of my working time on my BIO major, which leaves little time for Econ. I would have a 3.85-3.9ish without the Bio major, and right now I have a 3.65. My question is is it worth it? The thing is I can use my double major as a GPA crutch in interviews, but that goes away if I drop it. I regret starting it, but should I finish it?

Interested in healthcare IB if that changes anything.

IMO, double major is a waste of time unless you are doing a Double Degree/ Concurrent degree program.

So unless you are graduating with 2 Bachelor Degrees then don’t do it
