Yeah, I'm starting to think I'm screwed when it comes to a good job, but at least I have SOME degrees 

Note that the days of Milgram and Zimbardo are long gone, so don't expect anything earth-shattering.
Well, I'm starting Introduction to Psychology at college in a couple weeks. I think I'll like it, I've always been interested in psychology, and I have a natural ability to "read" people.
Anyway, I have no actual experience studying psychology besides bits and pieces on the internet, and lots of experience in all kinds of drugs.
So, has anybody taken or taking psychology classes? What do you think of them? Is it kinda boring in the beginning? Is it hard? You get the idea
I will warn you though: I didn't try to calibrate my coursework to a career, so I likely afforded an above-average amount of room to meander.

resin teeth said:I felt as though psychology took all these overarching concepts and characteristics that myself and many people notice in others and overcomplicated them. The class is generally a lot of memorizing theories, douchebags you don't care to remember, and definitions.

DrMcBudStoke said:I've taken a few semesters of university psychology, and it really started to bug me. The whole field is seriously lacking in mathematical rigor, and the so-called "research" is open to interpretation to such a degree that I feel it doesn't say much of anything.
majority of psychology (quite an expansive field) is quite quack-ish and lacking in scientific objectivity.
