I'm not sure what program to go into. I'm almost done my first year, and I know that it will be either biology, chemistry, or both. I found certain aspects of biology like cell structure, cell signalling, protein synthesis, ... to be interesting, however, the other aspects of general biology such as plants and development I found boring. I enjoyed literally all aspects of chemistry though, but I understand biology much easier (I had in A+ in both classes, but biology required less work than chemistry).
If I don't get into medical school I'd like to end up with a degree I can use to go on into some sort of a stable and lucrative career. I'm much more microscopically inclined; I like molecules, proteins, pathways, ... as opposed to ecology, biospheres, ecosystems, ...
Would a biology and chemistry double major be best, or would it be better to pick one or the other and do an honours major? I realize that it's hard to tell me the right thing to do, but I've tried my best to give an indication of what sorts of things I'm into.
Pre-emptive thanks. Have a good weekend, and don't get too drunk.
