I've completed my B.Com and now I'm almost through my B.Ed. I am quite interested in psychology. Can I opt for an M.A in psychology now?

    Hello,
    A curious mind is a mind that grows. However, mere curiosity shouldn't make you change the course of your career as a whole. Think about it. Of course you can switch to Psychology, but reading books about Psychology and finding it interesting and making a career out of it are two completely different aspects. You should look into the career prospects first. And even if you do, maybe a career in Industrial Psychology would be helpful for you, as you're already connected to the line of B.Com.
    I hope it helped.
