Sophomore Verified

Psychology overall is a super fun major, as it allows us to understand why we are the way we are! There are different branches of psychology, including but not limited to, social psychology, cognitive psychology, clinical psychology, and developmental psychology. The level of difficulty in the long run depends on the field you choose and the type of psychology courses you take. With that said, psychology allows for a broad range of career options post-graduation.

I really enjoyed all the classes I took and thought they weren't too difficult. The professors were all really supportive and cared about student learning. Unfortunately, since it's such a large major, it can be difficult to enroll in classes but it was never impossible.

Psychology helped me learn a lot about people, behavioral patterns and reasonings and theories behind it which was really interesting. It is a very broad major so there's a lot you can do with a psychology major but at times it felt too broad and many avenues always include going to graduate school and not usually a career straight from a bachelor's degree. Oftentimes psych students go into research, academia, or therapy routes.
