My Chemistry Major Regrets (And Why I Picked It)

In this video I want to talk a bit about why I picked the chemistry major and the thought process of why I picked chemistry as my major as opposed to physics or biology. I also want to talk about my regrets picking the chemistry major and the main issues I have ran into with it to give people a sense of some of the downsides as opposed to other STEM majors.

I also thought that chemistry was very interdisciplinary. I was wrong therefore ended up changing my major to physics because I enjoyed the limited physics courses I took more so than the actual chem courses

True as a final year chem major student , burnt out is real😅 physics classes, calculus & algebra, O chem and A chem made my life pretty hard 😅😅😂

What are you going to to after you graduate?

[@edwardotieno3264]

@@trent6319 am planning to pursue graduate program in material science and nano engineering ...or polymer science

⁠@@edwardotieno3264hi! I’m a sophomore chem student, who has been thinking about this type of stuff after undergrad.
Have you made it into a grab program for material science? If so, can you give me your thoughts / advice on it?
What do you like, not like
Did a undergrad in chem prepare you for the grad program
Is the effort and journey worth it?

I'm a Physics/structural/CAD person, but agree, Chem. is the "center of the universe". I will say, if Chem. dudes are all as good looking as Zahl Azizi I would definitely consider going back to uni, doing chem. as a hard science, as a "Mature ager" LOL. But seriously Chemistry is art in a way, knowledge is everything, there is so much more to life than graduating quickly with something to get a big salary. If I have regrets in life it was that I did the degree that would get ++Job ++++Salary, instead of following my heart, and learning interesting stuff, like a Chemistry Major!

I left a Chem degree to do nursing but I miss chemistry sooo much. I’m finishing nursing degree next year and I’m debating grad entry med but my heart is so with Chem. Debating medicinal Chem degree but I really am lost when it comes to job prospects😅?! Heart is with Chem though… would mean I’d have to save up to pay for a whole degree tho😭

As a sophomore student, no regrets yet lol

Switch now, go to CS, Engineering or Healthcare. If you stay you are setting up yourself for low paying jobs and life is hard now than ever 🤣

[@Badbirdy54]

@@AfroMedic healthcare is a joke, unless you got lucky and went to med school.
Im pharm d student and i just found out that it is the most saturated major in health care which means it won't make me work full time which will result in low pay 🙂.
I'm thinking about medical lab science and nursing but i don't know now because i hated every healthcare fields.
Anyway CS and engineering are the best choices.

I hate the lab

[@chrissy4957]

Same 😭 but mostly synthesis lab, I kinda liked inorganic lab more
