<p>@Nano: Wow, LOL! You are sadly clueless. The only people who consider that being ridiculous are the ones like you who have NOT experienced working out there in the science field before and are not working in the real world. You will be surprised how many people who have Biology and Chemistry degrees regret their decision and not move forward. A degree in the science does indeed help prepare you for graduate school. A lot of my classmates wish they would have majored in the sciences, so they can familiarize themselves with the courses offered in medical school. It is an excellent stepping stone. Are you in graduate or medical school? Have you worked out there with a Biology or a Chem degree and found a decent job besides being a lab serf? Have you stayed at a job more than 5 years? If not, then you really have no say what is going on in the science job market, Nanotechnology.</p>
