Radiologists make far more than pharmacists. Some perfunctory research shows that radiologists make between $300,000 and $450,000 a year on average, with the general average coalescing around the $380,000 mark. Pharmacists make around $122,000 a year on average. Education is similar, sort of - PharmD and MD programs both take 4 years, but a radiologist would have to go through The work environment and style are very different, with pharmacists being more likely to work a regular 9-5 schedule and radiologists sometimes working longer hours and in different kinds of settings. Debt would be about the same, depending on where you attend school.

Which one is better/happier really depends on you and your likes and dislikes.

I agree, though, that it’s too early to limit yourself to these two. The prerequisites are similar especially early on, so satisfy both of them and then decide later.
