#BlackinPsychJourney π§΅After freshman year, I knew bio/pre-med wasn't it. π
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.
Itβs Day 3 of #BlackinPsychWeek and as we prepare for our wonderful panel today we want to hear from YOU!
1οΈβ£ Tell is about your journey to psychology! How did you land on your specific discipline?
2οΈβ£ Use the hashtag #BlackinPsychJourney so we can RT!
