Pharmacy or dentistry???

Hi,


I am 17 years old and I have only a year to choose what I want to become- a pharmacist or a dentist?I definately want to study in the UK, and I am taking my CAE this summer for that reason.But let's say the big problem is (apart from that I am really worried whether I would pass the exam with the suitable grade)that I don't know which profession to choose :(:(


My classmates are discusing the same topic but this does not help me a lot.Can someone tell me how many years you have to study to become a dentist and a pharmacist?I've heard for dentistry is 8 or 9 years and as for the pharmacy -4 years?


Please, if someone could tell me the advantages and disadvantages for both this jobs I'd be really thankful.


And of course the money they get per annum ?


Thank you all in advance.

Pharmacy or dentistry???
hey,just caught your email, well as a science graduate here in australia, i would say that being a dentist certainly earns a lot rather than a pharmamcist, apparently dentistry is among the top paid job here, Bsc in dental science takes three years to complete plus you could actually practice by the end of the second year while 4 years to pharmacy and i'm pretty sure its the same elsewhere, if u like digging into ppl's mouth, then go for it...just encouraging you to do dentistry 'coz ma younger brother wants to do the same...hopefully somethings are clear, counsellors would provide better guidance! just sending you a link on dentistry and pharmacy below:
