<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I’m a chemistry major at UC Berkeley planning on going into consulting/business. Chemistry is a good major to have for business (if you are interested in that route) because 1)it’s analytical and 2)highly quantitative. I really recommend doing a business/finance/accounting/econ minor or major along with it. If your school doesn’t offer minors/majors in those areas or if you don’t have time, just take business classes.</p>
<p>One bad thing is that chemistry majors, from my experience, are perceived as nerdy and not very sociable. Offset this with leadership and internship experience–the more, the better. You need to show that you are able to produce results effectively.</p>
<p>Hope that helps :)</p>
