Chemistry vs Physics

>thinking you can solve the schrodinger for anything more complicated than a hydrogen atom

there are no theorems in chemistry, sapienti sat

nigger we can't even solve the classical problem of F=MA for three bodies and you want us to do the quantum analogue for how many electrons and protons?

>physics vs a subset of physics
Physics it is

so all hope is lost

Physics:
>n-particle wavefunctions are calculated from the Hamiltonian.
Chemistry:
>memorize these rules.

i have to decide between the two for a masters

this is only in europe (dunno elsewhere)

if you want to be bored to death (but making decent cash) you can go analytical chem and take courses on the regulator authorities. When you finish you can be an auditor (or if you have money to spare, go one step further, take even more qualifications and make your own external audition firm)

inorgonic chem is now kinda meh, since most EU funds they can grab are on sustainable energies and industry support is mostly into catalysts. R&D has more options, but I haven't heard much in terms of job opportunities

bio/organic/pharma chemistry - it's shit, despite what other tell you. The truth is that too many people are lured in and few remain. Only worth it if you are really good, else you are stuck at low level.

physical chem, pretty much spend their time doing the work of chem engies (which is petty since they could use some work ideas). Uni investigation prospects are decent but job market not so much (expect an year, maybe more until you land a decent job)

computacional/theoretical chem - so you want to be a physicist/bio-chem despite you knowing squat compared to your peers? good luck with that, I'm sure that will work out for you

Chemical engineering fir jobs.

Chemical engineering involves surprisingly little actual chemistry.
