Wow, same situation here. 3.4GPA with a 3.2GPA in Chemistry, which is the type of program i am seeking post college.

My dad, who is very practical, told me I would be begging for food on the streets and that I’m not smart enough for sciences. He’s urging me to try to apply to med school after a masters or to simply drop science and go into accounting.

I’m hoping he’s just trying to scare me. He’s a biochemist and hates his life and says that I will too if I do chemistry. I’m as average as it gets and chemistry isn’t a field for average people.
