<p>The more employable fields of chemistry are the more quantitative ones, such as those related to physical chemistry, if only because those skills are quite transferable to other fields. Biochemistry, on the other hand, tends to have somewhat worse prospects because not only is the field oversaturated, but also many of the skills there (organic synthesis etc) are useless outside of biochemistry.</p>
<p>Prospects aren’t what I would call phenomenal, but I wouldn’t call it “wasting time in college” either.</p>
