I have just been wondering, and if this has been done before - so sorry - but I think it is interesting that this show appeals to such a wide base.

We all have 2 things in common - we are all uncommonly intelligent, else we would be watching reality tv instead of living virtual lives. And we all love Serenity/Fire Fly.

But was is our makeup?

I will start:
Female
41
Single/divorced
IT Field
USA
Catholic
White
Irish/German/Scottish descent

I bet we cross all lines of Race, age, sex, etc.

My advice? Run screaming for the hills and don't look back!

Seriously, in the UK at least they're both some of the hardest proffessions to break into, but for different reasons. There are only about 3 or 4 colleges that do a decent vetenary science course so they can affort to be REALLY picky (I mean top 0.1 percentile plus lots of relevant volunary experience type of thing).
Unlike many of my classmates, I didn't want to be a vet 'cos I wanted to study healthy animals. I got a pretty decent degree but the fact that 6 years later I still haven't found an ecology related job shows how competitive things are. That's why I've gone back to Uni to get an Animal Science MSc.

All I can say is that out of the 50 or so classmates I started with, only about 6 went on to do anything biological, but they are extremely happy (if poor!) so if he's really committed I say good luck to him!!
