Answer 1

Calling Psychology a fun subject is a bit optimistic. It's not a science its Humanities.

If you want to have fun then do a fun subject like BA Drama. You'll get a chance to dress up and have fun in acting classes.

Psychology is academic, dry and non fun subject. You'll have to read and discuss difficult to read texts that could never be classed as fun. The people who do these subjects are serious, studious students.  

Answer 2

Well I took a science orientated course in college eg Environmental science, human physiology and psychology so I would think so. I really enjoyed it you will notice yourself wondering that their is a reason a person said something I had so much fun. Quite easy yes that is if your interested in what makes people tick.

Answer 3

its a social science about how th emind works

its easy and fun..in my opinion..

psycology is a good subject to take but depends on whether science is your thing or not

hope i helper

Answer 4

The university of aberdeen offers psychology as an art or science subject. I would think it would be challenging but well worth the effort with good job prospects after you have finished the course.
