I know a TON of research scientists who also play in bands as their hobby... IDK why they do it, other than they were taught how to play said instruments, they love it, and they continue...

They work in research because IDK, they like it? My reasons are different and they changed. Oh well.
Your points were clear, except for the medical, scientific jargon you were using. I don't have an understanding of medical school admissions, but I have more of an understanding now that some of you explained it to me. I don't know much about biotech companies. Just some of the stuff I read.

Well, don't you think you need to learn some of the medical and scientific jargon before applying yourself to either field? I am not talking about writing a pathologist's run on sentences, I just talking about basic concepts, i.e. what is macromolecules, eukaryotes, Kingdom Mammalia, etc. or maybe pH and have seen the periodic table and know what are salts, alkali's and a proton... Or maybe the basic mechanical force equation, elasticity, thermodynamics? Maybe...

Even in biotech, if you don't know what your pH should be, how can run at 384 chip analysis on your microRNA translation state array? These things go for $5000 a chip these days.
