Psychology and Sociology Majors (or non-majors too...)

I am a psych major and I LOVE IT. the professors are really awesome and you can tell really care about their students and the classes have all been really interesting...even the required stats classes that most people dread before they take them have turned out to be valuable and fun (to the degree that stats can be fun) : ). With that said, I haven't taken any soc. classes so I can't say anything about those. If you really like both of the programs, you should consider a double major. I am double majoring in psych and poli sci and i am only going to have to go a quarter beyond my original graduation date so it isn't that hard. By doing this, you probably wont be able to take a lot of the optional courses in the different programs if graduating in a somewhat timely fashion is a top priority of yours but other than that I would highly recommend double majoring...not only will you get to take all the classes you want, but you will have double the career opportunities when you do graduate which in the current economic climate is a good thing.

good luck with whatever you choose!

Very cool.  Psychology is indeed very fascinating.  I have taken sociology and it was very cool and interesting but not where I wanted to focus.  I definately think that if you picked sociology or psychology, either are awesome subjects or you could combine the two into a sweet double-major, very popular option.  I am actually at the present time double majoring in Psychology and English Literature.  This is my first quarter as well so I am playing in the pool as well.  The professors have been informative, fun and helpful so far for me.

Psychology is lame..its all about behavioral neuroscience.

Thanks for your responses! While I would love to do a double major, I think I am too late in the game to do that being that I'm in my third year. I wasn't really thinking about a double major in community college-more so just getting an associate degree. I should have though. The thing that makes this decision so hard is that they are similar majors with some obvious differences, but indeed similar. I've done a lot of research on both and have weighed pros and cons-but still am torn. Dang pressure!
