What career path should I take Pharmacy or Nursing?


I have been researching around here and most people believe that pharmacy is the way to go. I was wondering if there's a great amount of math in pharmacy because Im mediocre at it. I also would like to know what are the main challenges in pursuing to become a pharmacist (subjects). Knowledge wise which needs more rigorous studying? Also any suggestions on what other medical fields I should research on. Thanks alot!

By the way I live in California

doesn't matter where you live but Pharmacists make more money than a nurse and it is math driven.

Way to much math in Pharmacy. Don't forget about all that math that's needed for chemistry. Try pharmacy first, just spend a day with a nurse and you'll see why.

Neither is an easy course of study, but pharmacy is much longer, more rigorous, and has a lot more math involved.

The job market for either profession is excellent - finding a job won't be difficult.

Pharmacy would have higher pay.
