    Вопрос для ввода

    Does becoming a scientist is hard?. What should I do if I want to pursue it?. Can you give me some facts or background about it??. Actually, doctor is what I want before but it's tiring and costly. So, I wondered that what if I will be a scientist instead??. Is it cool and good job too. I really want to work on laboratory and experimenting.
