I am an undergraduate very interested in pursuing psychiatry. An obvious major choice which would help me be prepared for a career in this field would be psychology (for example, material like psychopharmacology and psychotherapy will then be repeated). An advisor warned me about this major though: since there are so many psych majors, most classes are taught by graduate students. She said that since I was experiencing college once, I might want to select a department where I am taught by full professors. I am interested also in philosophy and english and that is true of these departments. Do you guys think that philosophy or english could also be helpful with psychiatry? Why? Or, is it best to be around the psychology material as much as I can no matter who is teaching it. I know that I can choose any major and still go to medical school.
