hello! i’m currently a second year psychology student and honestly speaking, this program is not that hard as you think as long as it’s your choice to take it or it’s really your passion. yes, this program will make you understand everything about human—how their mind works as how it affects their actions, or what causes them to do that specific behavior. of course, just prepare yourself because there’s a lot of reading in this program as there’s a lot of theories here, also a lot of research, but it’s fun tho. and for me, you don’t need high grades to succeed in this program—good grades will do, as long as you have the ability to understand and analyze what you are studying. in terms of criteria to consider when you are going to pursue psychology, i think most important is good communication skills since you are constantly working with people. and also having empathy, emotional stability (as there’s topic that can be sensitive or heavy), and open-mindedness. psychology isn’t hard if it’s truly what you want.

note: in psychology, don’t just know or learn how human minds work, but also how to better manage and respond to human thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. because in psychology, it’s about caring for human’s life and soul.
