What's your major if you don't mind me asking?

I graduated college about one year ago (BS- Chemistry).
I have to admit though, I got one of my two "C"s in Biochemistry .

I've always been more of an inorganic kind of guy.
I'm a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major... Don't feel bad I got a couple C's in chemistry classes this was my first semester I actually did well.

I'm all for studying something you are passionate about, but at the same time I think that your degree should be something marketable. I know a lot of people with degrees in the arts or communications that aren't doing much after school. Could you do a minor in philosophy? That would give you a solid backup plan incase you change your mind about law school.

I used to want to go to medical school, but the more I learned about science, the less thrilling being a doctor became. I don't really agree with how medicine is practiced and the bureaucracy in the field anyway. So, graduate school here I come!
