Okay.
So I’ve decided, I think, what I specifically want to do in the field of psychology. I know the majority of people majoring in psychology want to do clinical work. I, on the other hand, want to stay as far away from it as possible.
I’ve always had a thing with data and statistics—I like to analyze data, check correlations, and find percentages (what a total nerd, eh?). So I figure I want to go into quantitative and psychometric psychology, which basically deals with the design, execution, and validity of tests and the data received from said tests (tests being IQ, personality, and achievement tests for the most part). It sounds like stuff I’d like to do. Plus the $200,000 a year salary sounds pretty good, too.
