<p>I am not clueless. I know the job market is tough for science majors, and with an undergrad degree in the sciences most of the jobs you’ll be able to get are as lab techs.</p>
<p>But the purpose of studying science is not aimed solely at medical school. I started out college as pre-med and was doing some research on the side for application purposes. I discovered, though, that the actual science appealed to me more than the medical side of things. So now I am preparing for PhD applications. Even after that, I recgonize that the job market is… less than spectacular.</p>
<p>What I’m taking issue with is your claim that the only good reason to study science is to go to medical school.</p>
