Where can I go with a Psychology major? - Tiffany - 11-27-2012 06:50 AM

I'm stuck between Business Marketing and Psychology. I feel like Business will get me further in todays world, but i have a sort of calling for psychology related stuff.

Most businesses don't care what degree you have as long as you have one.

Go with the one with the easiest classes and the cheapest credits.

Pursue what you have a passion for. If you're not into business but pursue it because you think it will get you somewhere, you will never truly enjoy it.

Go after a Masters in psychology, and then go after a PhD. Go as far as you can with it if that's what you enjoy.

Good luck!

Ah well...you can go with Psychology. If that's what you want.

Don't worry about your career. If your heart guides you to the study of human nature(and thereby yourself), you will be better prepared for your life ahead.

You will be guided to the life's work that truly represents you.

Help get the the kids off meth and heroin and make them productive citizens and have a happy healthy life, and you will get ten fold back. If you care about people.

You can be a psychologist. Do you know all the different types of psychologists there are? Some don't even work with people, so you may want to look into that. I'm a psychology major myself and I want to become a social worker who works with battered and abused women.

Try these sites too to find out more:
