You may prepare for upsc after doing ma psychology or go for p.hd in it. Until you hv passion about the subject and certain entrepreneurial skills, the job market is not very encouraging as its an unorganized sector. So chart ur path carefully.

With Liberal Studies, we can not go very far, without being excellent. So, we have to Study and research. This applies to Psychology also. The study must be whole and the quality good. The subject is good. But, the results are not automatic.
