Biochem to Pharma R&D or Medical Doctor

The user, currently in engineering but disliking it and struggling with math/physics, has a strong interest in biology, chemistry, and helping people. Switching to Biochemistry opens clear paths: either pursuing a PhD for research, entering the pharmaceutical industry to develop medicines, or going to medical school to become a clinical doctor. These fields align better with their passions and offer stable, impactful careers. The pharmaceutical industry is explicitly mentioned as a good fit for biochem majors, focusing on developing life-saving medicines. Becoming a doctor, while a significant investment, aligns with their desire to directly help people and can still include research. AI concerns in medicine are noted, but direct patient care often has high human demand.
