#BlackinPsychJourney 🧡After freshman year, I knew bio/pre-med wasn't it. πŸ˜… I'd enjoyed my intro psych class, so I changed my major to it! Neither clinical nor biopsyc electives drew me in, but taking social psych & stats made me realize my love for both, so I went with it.
It’s Day 3 of #BlackinPsychWeek and as we prepare for our wonderful panel today we want to hear from YOU! 1️⃣ Tell is about your journey to psychology! How did you land on your specific discipline? 2️⃣ Use the hashtag #BlackinPsychJourney so we can RT!
