    I’ve never seen anyone take psych as a major like they did for a liberal arts degree. Maybe different schools do different things? I was definitely being too general and there are exceptions. There weren’t exceptions at my university in my personal experience, but you could have some.

      Yeah my experience is the same as yours. Every one of the people I’ve met that studied psychology in university were either mentally lost, crazy, manipulative or a combination of those. But I’m from France and school is free here so there are a lot of people going to university just to try or because they have no idea what to do otherwise, the crowd might be different when you have to go in debt to study.

        School isn’t free, but we do have a lot of students with rich parents. That might be the psychopath section of my experiences.
