Dear Sahar,

Hope you’re doing well.

It is necessary to start by looking at your school's undergraduate catalogue to identify the distinctions between the two degrees because each university may have its own requirements. After noting the core classes needed for each degree, examine the required electives and subject-matter courses.

Bachelor of Science versus Bachelor of Arts -

A Bachelor of Arts degree typically emphasises more general education courses in the liberal arts.

Students who select this degree option might also need to finish a foreign language requirement. The B.A. option typically entails taking fewer psychology courses and more classes in subjects unrelated to the major field of study. More scientific and math courses will be the focus of a bachelor's degree in science. It's possible that students pursuing a B.S. in psychology will need to take more general education lab and statistics courses. In comparison to those pursuing a B.A., B.S. students take more psychology courses and place a greater emphasis on their major area of study. The degree's subject matter area might also put more of an emphasis on courses in applied psychology and research methodologies.

What Academic Degree Is Better?

Although one degree may not always be superior to another, some academic experts contend that holders of a B.S. in psychology have more options and flexibility. But it's crucial to concentrate on picking a degree that best matches your own needs, abilities, interests, and career objectives.

For students who are really interested in psychology but also want to learn more about other academic fields, the Bachelor of Arts in Psychology is a fantastic choice. For instance, you might choose to major in psychology while taking numerous courses in a subject like nutrition and health. Students who are interested in specialised psychology subjects like health psychology or forensic psychology may find this preparation to be ideal. Students that select this degree option later on may choose to pursue additional study in business, journalism, political science, social work, counselling, education, or law.

The Bachelor of Science in Psychology provides excellent preparation for doctoral study in psychology or related fields, as well as for professions in the sciences. Students with a keen interest in science can also gain from the broad study of biological science and research methodology offered by this degree choice. The Bachelor of Science programme should undoubtedly be taken into consideration if you intend to pursue graduate study in psychology.

Review the prerequisites for each degree at your university and see a psychology department adviser for more guidance before determining which path is best for you.

So what's the final word?

Considering a psychology degree if you:

- are you intending to pursue a career after completing your undergraduate studies?

- You want to pursue a graduate degree in a subject other than psychology, such business, law, counselling, social work, or management.

Consider a BS in Psychology if you:

- a more science-focused curriculum interests you

- You want to pursue a psychology graduate degree.

- You want to study medicine.

Hi

If you get a seat in first round and don't want it then you can go for free exit.

Free exit means if you get a college and you don't report to the college then you can exit from the that round of counseling.

If you get a college allotted in second round you must take admission in allotted college or you will have to loose your security deposit.

Best of luck
