<p>They both suck, straight biology is worse than biochem though. Biology in general is worse than chemistry which itself is really bad.</p>
<p>The last stats from the ACS are ~40% of chem grads are employed full time and half of those are in crap dead-end low-paying tech jobs in academia. So we can estimate 15 to 20 percent of chem grads and probably fewer biology grads get decent jobs.</p>
<p>Most jobs I’ve seen for biologists, biochemists, or chemists are contract and the agency eats most of your paycheck leaving you with $15-20 per hour, no benefits, no job security, and no career advancement. Avoid science careers in the US like the plague.</p>
