Normal science degrees are shit? There are so many majors you can choose to do with some B.Science degrees, so really the major you choose dictates the job prospects it opens to you. For example, if you keep working up the ladder in hospitals and labs stemming from a single B.Science degree you did, you can work into supervisory and management roles. Honestly, general courses are as general as you make them. No, I'm not butthurt because I'm doing a "shit degree...like normal science", just putting some information out there from someone who's been through a biomedical degree and moving into a general science degree, and wants to be a scientist.same, but I can transfer to the PhB/MBBS halfway through this year if I get HDs in semester one. In all honesty I would do engineering if I were you that way if you don't get in your not left with a shit degree like medical science or normal science.
Also, for medical science, pretty much the jobs available to you are labs and research - which to be honest if you're taking the degree, is this not the end result you're after if not aiming to go into graduate medical studies? All the people I've ever known, including myself who've done medical/biomedical science, that's where they were heading, and they've all found jobs in labs and hospitals. So it looks like they haven't ended up nowhere I honestly don't know what other career aspects you would expect from a course that teaches you laboratory sciences and laboratory skills? :/
Riproot - yeah pretty much people who do med science and don't go onto medical school > labs and research, maybe onto management if they do a little extra training.
