is it actually worth it by 2028? I need advice.

Hi! I'm a 15 year old high schooler from India, currently in Class 11 CBSE board. I have taken Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Computer Science as my subjects, and I'm considering Bioinformatics as my future career path.

I have researched this multiple times and talked with multiple people about it. Most of them are saying that fields like tech and finance are going to be heavily taken over as AI keeps developing more and more. So basically I want to find the safest career by 2030, and from whatever I have read and heard, Bioinformatics seems like a good option. But I also want to hear from more people and get multiple perspectives on this, so here I am.

Here's where I'm at right now:

Preparing for SAT,aiming to apply to US colleges

Already talking to a consultant about profile building, research papers, internships, the whole deal

Planning to graduate in 2028 (Class 12)

My main questions:

Is Bioinformatics actually a smart long term bet or is it overhyped right now?

By 2028, will the job market be strong?

what will Compensation be especially if I study in the US and want to work in biotech or pharma?

Is Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Computer Science a solid foundation for this?
