Hello all,
I'll try and keep the rundown concise. I got a BA in social sciences a few years ago that didn't do much for me other than open up doors to federal gov't jobs, which I turned down. I went back to school 2 years ago and began my 2nd BA this time in accounting, I'm in my final semester....and really don't enjoy accounting but at this point might as well finish and get the degree.
My passion/interest was always psychology, as a young guy I was turned off by spending years in grad school, I wanted to make money now. As I've gotten older I realize you have to do what you are passionate about to enjoy life.
Long story short, I know I am under-qualified to even apply to Psyd programs, how do I fix this? Should I try and enter a Masters program? Should I try and find a job/volunteer opportunity in the psych field? Should I focus on takinge the GRE and a bunch of psych courses at my local community college?
Any guidance is appreciated!
