[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is a teacher.  She was valedictorian in high school.  Graduated summa cum laude from both high school and college.  National Merit Scholar.  Full merit scholarship in college.  Master of Education in Applied Behavior Analysis.  She has many, many colleagues with similar stats.  I doubt any of her parents know how brilliant she is.  They just know she is a great teachers with a passion for helping children with autism become their highest and best selves.  And she loves her kids so much. [/quote]

Psychology majors don't get many good options.
A lot of girls end up choosing it because it's relatively easy and sounds like something.

Clinical psychology PhD programs are insanely competitive, even more so than medical school. My daughter is starting at one that is ranked something like 150 on USNews, so NOT a top program by any means...they accepted 3 students this year of 140 applicants. [/quote]

That's one of the better route, and you would need PhD in order to make something decent out of it.
However even with that, going through all that education accumulating huge debt and becoming a 'Psychologist(PhD), the average income is relatively shitty

If you are from an affluent family and really like the field, it would be a good fit.[/quote]
