Hi,
I’m in year 12, taking biology, chemistry, psychology, maths + statistics and critical thinking. (My target grades set by the school are all A’s and one B in the summer)

2) What would be the average salary difference?
3) [...]

I’m in 10th grade, and have wanted to be in medicine basically all my life haha
Right now I’m thinking Psychology, maybe Psychiatry (but that’s 4 more years) a full fledged doctor, general practice, and a P.A.
Which is the best in terms of jobs open, years of school, competition..
Please and thank you

I heard that psychology involves more with talking with clients directly, and often for non-severe issues like daily stress, teenage angst problems, etc etc

If you had a degrees in both Psychology and Neurology: you could could perscribe medicine and you know everything a Neurologist knows about Psychiatry and the science of the brain and you have a degree in Psychology so you understand the mind. So I don’t see why you couldn’t do the same job as [...]

Is it me or does psychiatry (or anything to do with mental health) place too much emphasis on drugs. It seems that when you complain of feeling depressed, they just whip out their prescription pad and put you on an antidepressant. I’ve heard of this being done even when the depression is due [...]
