How likely am I to be qualified for the Q.S.W?

I have a Bachelor of Pharmacy four-year degree from an Australian university, where only English language was used. Currently, I am enrolled in a Master’s degree in chemistry(specialty - Organic and biochemistry).

Will I get 16 or 12 points for my study area of my degree(s)? In other words, will I receive points for my field from the bachelors degree or the master’s degree?
The Quebec points system seems to be interested in only the bachelor’s degree, but I am not too sure about this(could anyone clarify?)

I am in my mid-20s.

I will have done at least 6 months of work experience as a research assistant by next year(while enrolled in the master’s degree). – Are work experiences done as a research assistant counted under the QSW program?

And it seems like chemist/biochemist is a regulated profession in Quebec. Am I required to obtain a chemist ‘license’ first before applying for the QSW?

And do I have to apply under ‘chemist’/’biochemist’ if I have a Bachelor’s degree in pharmacy but currently enrolled in a masters in chemistry while working as a research assistant?
