Can i get a BA in psych and go onto nursing after i graduate from a university?
by: Anonymous

I am so confused as to what i want to do. I love psych, but i don't want to be a psychologist. i love helping people but it isnt as hands on and i dont want to waste my time getting a ph.d..i also considered social work but they make nothing and people say how both social work and psychology is depressing and i want to love what i do. every nurse i have spoken to tells me how they love what they do but i dont know much about it. im in my sophomore year of college and mainly taking prereqs. and a couple of psych classes.. i dont know how i would like being a psychiatric nurse because id only be around "crazy" people..im scared with nursing because im bad at math and science..what can i do?
