Do you think which one is better? And How's emplyment rate after studying these 2 courses?

These 2 majors are both my favourites. As I like environment, I would like to choose it. However, the emplyment rate of this major is quite lower than people who study Medicinal Chemistry. I need someone's suggestions so that I can choose a choose which suits to me. Thanks!

Plus, Enviornment needs much Geographical Knowledge which Medicinal Chemistry needs most knowledge of Chemistry and Biology.

You already have (environment) in your signiture.

Environment would be a useful degree though, as the environmental movement is getting bigger and bigger and it won't see a decline anytime soon. It sounds more interesting, too.

Neither, take an English major. :)

hahaha <3 polok!

Take environmental, more job opportunities and scope of career paths... Medicinal Chemistry is pretty limited although more specialised. I have a few friends who did it and unless you're willing to do honours and a phd, then you won't get far due to the industry elitism that is very prevelant. Enviro is much more relaxed.
