What do you all think of my hot take? lol

[ChristinaGSJ]

When you major in psychology cause you genuinely like it and then genuinely want to pursue a clinical psych PhD. 😅😂

I think this is great advice! Many people graduate with a psychology bachelors degree and don’t know what career options they have. I wish more people knew to take this as a minor and major in something that has a more direct career path

If ur not a people person like me, avoid psychology, pursue something else. As a 18 year old I had no idea what I wanted to do . I went into cognitive sciences for 2 years, grades wasn’t good enough to stay in it so I got into psychology . All though the courses weren’t hard and kinda entertaining( aside from my 4th year project class super boring) I got out qualified for jobs I wanted nothing to do with. I’m now pursuing drawing/ architecture, animation and other visual arts fields. Something more to my passion .

I’m so glad I found your account! I am graduating high school a year early to start my process in becoming a therapist and or getting my PsyD or PhD in psychology. Currently in my senior of high school I am taking into to psychology, english 101 & 103 and will be able to start different classes that will hopefully lead me in the right direction. Is there anything specific you recommend while going into this field? I have struggled with different mental disorders and traumatic experiences that have truly driven me to want to help others the way I wasn’t helped. I already got accepted into a psychology program at my local community college that will be able to transfer me to a 4 year school right after.. I’m just unsure which path or what I should major in after my psychology degree. Thank you for your videos they have been really helpful while deciding which path i’m going to choose. ❤️

can we do the opposite too? major in psychology and do a masters in education or language? I love foreign languages and I speak several. I also love psychology. I am learning French but realized I am wasting time learning and paying courses that would never give me a degree. so I was between a Bachelors in French because I need to learn due to moving abroad, but my union pays half the credit for psychology and several other majors but doesn't pay to a French major. I have a job I already love but would love to get a different degree. I wanted to find a way of studying psychology and then getting a French degree as well. so I could teach French or work at a school in France as a second job. a bit confusing but I want to spend time and money doing something that will give me a diploma, not just the skills.

I agree with you a psych degree is a great degree however, it’s for people who want to continue their education and become a social worker and or therapist etc. What college are you attending for neuropsychology ?

[Ram-ansh_as_Sociologist-]

As being a psychology major as an undergraduate course
Can I read hard books of
Neuroscience and Neuropsychology... ???
Or is it going to be hard for me to read ??

I want to become an expert on the "good life". Should I major in psychology for undergrad? I'm not sure if they have a positive psychology undergrad degree, but it is good to first get a broader perspective
