You study accountancy doesn't mean that you have to be an auditor.

Also, will you do better in Pharmacy vs NBS? Are you more science or finance inclined? Your future compensation is also determined by how well you do in the particular course.
All of my life, I have been Science-inclined but have recently gotten really sick of the memorising and regurgitation of facts. One thing to note though... I do better in Mathematics compared to my Sciences, and I am extremely comfortable with numbers.

In actual fact, even though I'm currently in Diploma in Biomedical Sciences, my distinctions are in modules such as Maths A (statistics), Maths B (differentiation, integration), Analytical & Physical Chemistry (tons of calculations), IDEA (INNOVATION DESIGN & ENTERPRISE IN ACTION), Report Writing & Presentation etc. I don't have a single distinction elsewhere, nothing close to my core modules...
