Don't lump Alchemists with Wizards. Alchs and Sorcs are two different classes with very different development (usually).

True Alchs, those who actually bother doing alchemy, have much higher intelligence than your average Sorc who doesn't have alchemy.

And there's really no way to judge who should get the "best," unless you go by the appropriate attribute level... like the Alch master has the most Intelligence, Sorc master has the highest Magic, and so on.
