  1. Hi everyone, Okay, so I am a third year chemistry major trying to decide my career path. Initially, I was set on medical school, but as I'm learning about where medicine is headed, I'm second-guessing my decision (I would be talking MCATs this summer, so I feel like some last-minute reflection is necessary). Not only was I interested in the science aspect of medicine, but I was also intrigued by the entrepreneurial aspect of starting or working in a private practice where there would be a business component to my career. However, as private practices are being bought out by corporate hospitals, I feel as though this aspect (which is very important to me) will be going away. Therefore, I'm curious what opportunities a PhD/MBA would offer me. Basically, I'm looking to combine my passions for chemistry, medicine, and business into one career. I will admit that money is a factor in my career choice, and that my ULTIMATE goal, however far-fetched it may seem, is to become a partner in a venture capital firm. Does anyone have any advice on what routes are possible after college to achieve this type of goal? I know it's a bit different from practicing medicine, but I can't seem to find any advice on how to get there. Thank you very much.
