Looking at my progress report, it's arguable that my results might have been a little better if I was in Business school instead of the Social Sciences.
Yet, looking at the bigger picture, I do appreciate my Social Science education.
I went to SMU with the intention of majoring in Political Science and Corporate Communications. It seemed like a good fit and the 2 majors do play to my strengths as well. Intro Political Science totally made me change my mind and I ended up being a Psychology major instead. And as for Corp Comms, I guess practical reasons dictated that OBHR was a better fit for a Psych major as compared to Corp Comms. The switch between CC and OBHR wasn't that great, either way, I feel that the career options that both present suit my personality and traits.
As a Psychology major, I learn a lot about how the human mind biologically works, why does it work this way and what are the thought processes that influence our decisions and thoughts. And it's with that very knowledge that I can manipulate my thought processes. I know how to work in different ways to convince or discourage myself. For some strange reason, it gives me the feel of a greater sense of control. For better or worse...
Here goes.
