I'm going back to finish an undergrad degree at Northwestern's "night school" & am flip-flopping between declaring either human biology or psychology as my major.
Obviously if I do bio, most of the pre-reqs out of the way. With psych though, I feel a bit safer with a degree that I could potentially use to work in the social services field if med school doesn't work out for whatever reason.
With the psych degree, I'll have to do some sort of post-bacc to gather all the pre-reqs, which will cost more money & time I also worry that I may have to do an SMP, which is even more money & time.
Should I just get over myself & go for the bio degree or is having the psych safety net worth it?
