Do you have to be in a pre-medical if you want to go to medical school?

I have an interest in going to medical school but I'm not sure if I need to apply for a pre medical program. I don't know if I sould be applying for pre-medical now because I am a senior to college.

Is it better to have a major set in your mind when you enter College or keep it as undecided until you've taken a few different classes?

Some college reps have said that keeping your major undecided is better and I just want to know if thats true.
