How to get from PharmD to bench work drug synthesis?
As a high school senior, my current plan is to enter a 6 year PharmD program, then either go into a fellowship or a PhD program (in Organic Chemistry, perhaps) to secure the relevant qualifications for the R&D work I want to do. However, I'm very hesitant about the PharmD portion, as I am...
Would a BSc in Chemistry from an Ivy League be more attractive to employer & PhD programs than a BSc (BSPS) in Pharmaceutical Sciences from another good school?
As it stands, I have a few great schools in mind for a BSPS that I think I stand a good chance of getting into (ex. Northeastern University, University of Pittsburg, University of Michigan at Ann Arbor). However, I've hesitated to add any Ivy Leagues to my college list because none of them...
How To "Secure" A PhD program?

Is BSPS + Organic Chem PhD a strong profile for Big Pharma Work?
What are the logistics of doing a BSPS followed immediately by a PhD in Organic Chemistry? Would an OrgoChem PhD would be more advantageous than a MedChem PhD towards securing a bench job in big pharma? Is a BSPS a good undergrad degree to support that? I'm inclined towards it in order to leave...

What will life look like for me as a BSN (bachelor of science in nursing) new grad?
I am a high school senior on the edge of graduating high school and going to a 4-year university to get my BSN and becoming a nurse. My family will have to take out loans given the current price of college, and we've come to terms with the fact that I will be helping them pay it back after...
As a high school student interested in politics, history, geography, city government, etc. What could be a good major/career path for me?
I am not really sure what major I want to go into for college. I know I could do political science but I just don't see that being a gateway into a career (correct me if I'm wrong). If there is a major/career in that sphere I would love to know what that would be. I was thinking law but I'm...
