<p>@Nano, okay, I apologize for calling you clueless. What I should have said was, according to my experience and what I have seen, people find better career opportunities using a degree in the science as a stepping stone for graduate school. As compared to just majoring in biology and chemistry. Most people I have seen, worked as lab serfs and dealing with abuse, little pay, no vacation, no sick days, no life, etc. Can you get a job? Yes, but the opportunities are limiting due to a huge glut of biology and chem majors.</p>
