Bachelor’s in History Education, pass your test. That’s really it. And I dunno how far you’re into your chem degree, but I imagine you have a lot of gen eds done. Could become a teacher in 2 years. Maybe more.
For me (I was a HS math teacher in Missouri), the actual education program was 2 years. Once your gen eds are done, 3 semesters of shadowing a teacher + usual college stuff. Then 1 semester student teaching. Then bam you can teach.
Teaching HS though... there’s a supply and demand problem from what I hear, at least in history. No problem in math, but in history you may need to work at a school you’d rather not, be forced into extra duties you’d rather not, teach classes you’d rather not...
Up to you really, but I’d suggest sticking with chem.
