    Hello Nehali,
    Both are really great subjects. Profound knowledge is hidden in depths of these subjects. However, from job perspective, psychology should be the choice. After graduation, there are plenty of specializations that will enable you to seek good jobs.

    Choose Psychology course. As per my knowledge, Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. Psychologists are actively involved in studying and understanding mental processes, brain functions, and behavior. Psychology looks at the ways people think, ACT react, and interact. It is the study of human (and animal) behaviour, and the thoughts and emotions that influence behaviour. As per my Understanding, Top Colleges/Universities for B.A. Psychology (Hons) in India.

While the course does not train students to diagnose or counsel professionally at an undergraduate level, it builds awareness and sensitivity.

Students learn how mental health issues are understood academically, the difference between common misconceptions and clinical realities, the importance of ethics, consent, and professional boundaries, and why self-diagnosis and casual labelling are discouraged.

This knowledge helps students become more informed and responsible, both personally and professionally.

Psychology can be challenging for students who are not used to analytical thinking. Faculty usually recognise this early and offer support.

Support often includes:

  • Additional explanations during or after class.

  • Feedback on where students are going wrong.

  • Guidance on how to structure answers better.

  • Encouragement rather than discouragement.

Students who seek help early generally see improvement over time.

Practicality is achieved through:

  • Assignments that involve observation and analysis.

  • Exposure to applied areas like counselling, organisational behaviour, or mental health.

  • Discussions around ethics and professional boundaries.

  • Internships and industrial exposure
