If I want to major in pschology, does it matter if I do well or not on my math section on the SAT??

Question

I want to major in pschology. Does it matter how I do on the math section on my SATs?

Answer 1

It depends what college you want to go to

Answer 2

Absolutely! There are math classes that are formed especially for psychology majors such as statistics and probability, etc. Although a clinical psychologist won't really be using math in therapy, college programs almost always require math for use in tests and experiments.

Also, no matter what your major, a low SAT score in any area looks bad for someone who wants to go to college.

Answer 3

Not at all. The SAT is suppose to be an indicator of how well you will preform in college but I don't find that to be true. In psychology a lot of the tests will be multiple choice (at least from my experience) some math will be involved but not a whole whole lot. So if I were you I wouldn't worry about it.  

Answer 4

yeah it does, to take psychology you will need a pass in Maths
