<p>i'm a high school senior and i'm having trouble deciding between pharmacy or physical therapy as a career choice. pharmacy seems boring, but a much easier career choice. any opinions? anything and everything is welcome. thanks!</p>
<p>Here is my advice: do very well in all of your classes now and especially in the math and science classes. At some reoccurring interval, “shadow” professionals in the field of your interest. As you mature physically and mentally, you will begin to develop your career philosophy and find one that matches your goals. This may come well into your college enrollment. Reading about these fields are important. However, nothing can replace the opportunity to observe professionals at work.</p>
<p>frugaldoctor has good advice. I would also ask a pretty simple question - do you prefer chemistry or biology/anatomy? I would think if you have a strong preference of one of these over the other than that might be your answer (or the beginning part at least). Do you like working with people all day? Pharmacy has MANY options not just retail that most consumers understand.</p>
