The only one worth doing is economics even though you could do way better. the other three are absolute CRAP.



Translation: I’m a haughty STEM major who feels insecure about the Social Sciences. Here’s a tip anti, don’t trash Psych majors, kaaay?

OP, if you’re looking to suppliment your law schooling, Philosophy is the way to go because a lot of Philosophy majors end up doing it for law school since it teaches you to think logically. Trouble is it won’t really do much on its own, it’s a stepping stone major for Law more than anything - maybe consider minoring in it. On their own Psychology and Sociology are able to stand up, although unless you’re planning on getting a Ph.D/Psy.D Psychology isn’t quite as useful as Sociology which I believe would allow you to get a human services type job with just a BA. But if you’re willing to do graduate school, Psychology is a lot of fun, a fantastic career choice, and the worst math you really do is Statistics and maybe some Calculus.
