They say one way to torture a person is to give them choices. I feel this is partly true in this case.
I have a goal in mind for either one: if I do physics, I'll pursue nuclear physics/engineering but I go the chemistry route: I'll do biochemistry/forensic science. I've done a lot of research on both but can't choose. As far as mathematical/academic ability goes, I'd say I'm very well off. Math has always fascinated me, but I'd rather be able to apply all the geometry/trig/calculus I've learned.
On the other hand, I've always had quite the reverence for our judicial system and the thought of analyzing evidence and presenting it sounds exciting, too. No, I do not watch CSI. Also, biotechnology/genetics research is apparently booming.
It just seems like there is a lot more opportunity in physics, but more job security in a career like forensic science. The two careers seem to be quite different.
Advice is much appreciated
