Is it better to major in chemistry or biology in order to get a good job as a forensic scientist?

I don't think you can often get a masters in something that you only minored in. See if you can get a double major, or switch bio to your minor and forensic science to your major. That said, here are things EVERYONE should google when picking a major: - average *starting salary* (enough to pay off loans in a reasonable amount of time?

If you have loans, that is) - average salary - average unemployment rate - job stability (one employer for a long time, or unstable contract work? This decides whether you'll be moving around so often that buying a house is impractical, and it gives you an idea of what benefits you'll get) - projected job growth in field - is it a common degree I suggest, one by one, going through each of these categories, and search them specific to where you live. You have to make sure your degree is worth it.

In high school, they tell us "Get an education, then get a job". It doesn't work like that. Some majors are useless - compare the unemployment rate of philosophy majors with that of the average population - it's literally the same, meaning that the degree didn't help them to get a job.

Yes, it's important to love what you do. If you go in something for just the money, you'll probably fail, because it's really hard to stay so focused for a reward that is so far away. So you have to at least LIKE what you major in.

But don't fall for the trap of believing that you can do whatever you want and it'll work out - doing what you love doesn't guarantee a job or stability. It doesn't even guarantee you'll work in the field you choose.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
