Title: Psychology 1/2 or Philosophy 1/2
Post by: _jen_012.x on July 25, 2018, 09:46:55 pm

Today I got my applications for doing a VCE subject in year 10. I applied for Philosophy and Pysch (kinda regret not applying for bio) and I got accepted into both. They are both subjects I am interested in but our school only allows us to pick one. Tips for picking which subject?

Read the study designs for the respective subjects. You can check them out here.
Find the one you're more interested in.

Other considerations may be:
1. If it's a pre-requisite for a course you intend to do post-VCE. (Neither of those are AFAIK.)
2. If you enjoy one more than the other.
3. If you do better in one than the other.
(Point 3 should be considered last of the three.)

Hope that helps! :)
