What careers should I look into if I'm interested in chemistry especially forensic chemistry?

I've been interested in chemistry since I was a little kid because it gives me insight as to how the world really works on the molecular level. I like forensic because I get to solve challenging problems. Science and math are my best subjects at school and I enjoy tasks that require critical thinking. I want to be challenged and my work to make a positive impact.

I'm taking forensic science on Tigerwoods. There's a lot going on my mind right now. Should I be a doctor or police? Is there anything such as both? I want to be a police who would risk her life on anything, investigate the crime scene, analyzing fingerprints, know how to use gun etc. at the same time I want to be doctor which is a pediatrician where I could help kids. I was thinking about being a police first then doctor but is that possible? I want to be walking in my police uniform with a badge on my uniform and at the same time I want to wear my doctor's uniform. Im kinda confuse at myself right now. ,Could you help me? P.S I dont want to be a lawyer and I love computers. #medicine #police #law-enforcement #forensic-science

How many accumulated years is it to become a licensed and board certified pathologist?

Hello! I'm trying to figure out a few different career paths to look into, but I'm starting out to see the ones I have chosen, and what is required with them, Meaning years of college, training, as an assistant, etc, and how the people who work in those jobs feel about them. I do have multiple questions. I'm going to be asking these same questions to multiple sorts of careers I am interested in. 1.) Do you like your job, or do you regret choosing it? If you knew before entering your career what you have known now, would you still have chosen to do your career, or picked something else? 2.) (Mainly for the few jobs that may need this question, I apologize if its uncomfortable.) Do you feel mentally drained after being in this job, because of what it entails, and your experiences in it? Has it had an impact in your mental state? Final question, I'm sorry for asking so many. Do you feel you worked hard for a good reason? Do you feel it is a good career to retire on? Thank you for listening! #forensic-science #forensics #forensic #chemistry
