Hi, if you want to become an astronaut then you must do astrophysics as it is the study of mostly space but in simple physics, you do not get the opportunity to gain more knowledge about space.

I will suggest you to do aerospace engineering or pilot. If you want to become an astronaut this is helpful to you.
If you do B. Sc in Astrophysics, you will able to research on Astrophysics only because you have not knowledge of space shuttle's driving and machines.

Well, if you have Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, all three in your Bachelor's degree you should first understand and analyze that which subject you like the most and you are highly interested in. Then devote atleast a year and evaluate the scope of M.Sc in that particular subject, study it and then select the subject. Don't be in a rush, take your time.
