The requirments to become a Saint Alchemist is having extraordinary energy(essentially being a heaven mage) and enough "alchemy comprehension". In truth, they should not be compared equally; as alchmists are like "advenced classes" or a "branch of mages" like nercormancer or battlemage. It techniqually should be added with the mage column, but since alchemy is a hug part of the novel, its own sepreate column is good.

Its like the difference between a Shooter and a Gun Scientist. A Gun Scientist may not be as good as the Shooter in wielding a gun, but to become a Gun Scientist is much harder as they need to learn to weild a gun as well as understand all its principals; however they are also much more valuable as they can make more and better guns affecting many people.

So NO, Saint Alchemist are not higher than Heaven Mages, but they are much much more valuable due to their impact on the world.
